▬▬▬ *Setting Up After Effects for Linear Compositing Using ACEScg* ▬▬▬ Before we dive into the compositing, lets take a look at setting up After Effects to work in a linear color pipeline with ACEScg, organize our project to keep things uniform and tidy, and go over how to apply precise show color, using a CDL and Show LUT provided by the client. With this method, we can be reassured that we're viewing the shot exactly as the client AND the audience will see it! Thank you for watching and we really hope that something useful can be pulled from this series to help in your workflow.
