In this session,Gary Davis,a Certified Discreet trainer,Challenges the view that many 3D animators have that 3D renders are a finished piece . Instead, 3D render can be seen only as a starting point in a chain of applications such as compositing and editing environments .

The session begins with an extremely cursory overview of Alpha Channels. Next the concept of Render Passes is
introduced,including the separation of foreground,mid ground and background . Render elements are discussed
in detail along with the process of using Z-Depth render passes. Finally the session ends with the use of RPF
sequences,and the powerful union that can be accomplished with 3ds max combustion .
