The Importance Of Render Order In Adobe After EffectsAfter Effects Preivew and Render Tips. In the second part I am going to talk about the render order in After Effects and what you need to consider when creating your visual effects. AME (as the cool kids say) allows you to hand the rendering process off to another application, so you can keep working in After Effects while your compositions render in the background.In the first part of VFX Vlog 8 I talked about when and how best (not) to use visual effects and how visual effects are often misused as storytelling tools. Adobe Media Encoder is a video rendering application that comes bundled with After Effects in the Creative Cloud.

Generally, After Effects doesn’t offer any standard file format to save your intro video or anything that is created in this tool. However, everything is ok except exporting.

In this case however, it works in your favour. For each layer, it first applies any masks (in the order they appear on the layer) and then it applies any effects (in the order they appear on the layer).If you expand any layer in your composition you will see the masks and effects on it laid out in the order they will be applied from top to bottom: masks, then effects, then transformations.Here is another example of where the importance of render order in After Effects is very obvious. This allows After Effects to composite the layers higher up onto the ones below them. You cannot change the render order in After Effects, but understanding how it works will equip you with the knowledge to solve common issues like the one above.After Effects renders the layers in your composition from bottom up. This is determined by the Render Order.
And while you can’t change the render order, knowing how it works will allow you to use it to your advantage. Therefore it will render the lightning effect onto the layer and then apply the mask to the result, thereby restricting the lighting effect to the boundaries of the mask.The render order in Adobe After Effects has a profound impact on how the visual elements in your composition are composited. In this case, that is likely what you’d want it to do.That is all good and well, but coming back to the Lightning example, how can we utilise our knowledge of the render order in Adobe After Effects to solve the problem?

You now decide to add a Glow effect to the element you separated.Because After Effects will apply the mask first and then apply the Glow effect over the resulting layer, the Glow itself will reach beyond the boundaries of the mask.
