This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

Hmmmmm let me think user added image



Before render check the option in render globals :Render alpha Chanel

When your render view apears, and the image it's render try saving the image as Tif because not all files can save the alpha channel.

Import the Tif in Adobe Photoshop and after that, go to Chanels Folder, and control click the Alpha chanel, than with your right mouse btn on the layers folder on the image layer select layer via copy and .........

Voila !
You get the whole image rendered butwith out the black background


It's tough to think but fo helping others ......
