Change backgrounds in post processing

Post by the_ant »

Hi all
Is it possible to change background in post processing without re-render scenes with glasses on it?

Yeah. Render your background with alpha. Or with a solid 255 blue or green or red. In blender, fusion or natron you can use a keyer/matte node that can take that color, shifts it to alpha then you can put any background in behind.

in modelside it iis possible with lightworks renderer - just render it as PSD file and check the mask option. It should make a photoshop file with mask. You can now add a background layer to have background.

Single with Alpha Mask checked would do it I think.

In that case try rendering as 32 bit png or tga files. I think that's the most direct answer to your original question.

I like PNG's, compresses better than TGA's. But Single with Mask to a PNG would yeah, work great.

Krita (free) opens PSD's with no issue preserving layers. So yo ucan render out into PSD's too.
