Common Uses
The Raw Total Light Render Element is useful for changing the appearance of the entire lighting of the scene, after rendering, using a compositing or image editing application. A Cryptomatte Render Element is used to isolate the floor, the windows along with the curtains and the stone fence, and the ceiling. Then the Raw Total Light Render Element is brightened and tinted differently for each element to show the range of editing possibilities. See the render before and after compositing.
