Patreon Tutorial #36 - Introduction To OCIO & ACES - Part 1 (Patreon)

Hey guys! This is part 1 of a 2 part OCIO and ACES tutorial for Redshift. In this tutorial I go over how to use the default OCIO v2.0 config, how to load your own OCIO configs, some of the new features in OCIO v2. Where all the new OCIO options are available and how the Rendering space makes a significant different to the way things used to look before. Near the end of the tutorial I go over how we can convert an old scene to work with the new color space options and how to properly interpret textures and HDRs.

This is a pretty in-depth tutorial covering the how and why of behind the new OCIO and ACES pipeline which will hopefully help demystify these powerful new features. In part 2 I will go over properly exporting and importing the renders into different compositing packages.

Linked below are all the links and files I mentioned and used in this two part series. Thanks again for all the support here on Patreon!
