A tutorial for working V-Ray render elements in After Effects from Fred Ruff who looks at gamma issues, linear workflow, and composite performance while setting up all the elements in After Effects – really thorough!

“The idea seems like a dream right?  Render out your scene into different elements and give control of different portions of the scene so that you can develop that final “look” at the compositing phase?  However, as I looked into the idea at my own studio, it’s not that simple.  This is a history of my adventure of adapting render elements into my own workflow.”
