Below are the common settings available to artists using RenderMan in bridge products.

Storage

  • Tiled: Image is saved in tile formatted blocks of data
  • Planar/Scanline: Is stored as a scanline format, this is preferred for reading in Nuke

Type

  • Half Precision (16-half)
  • Float Precision (32-bit float)

Typically Half is good enough for color AOVs and passes. Float is recommended for Data AOVs and passes like Z depth or P

  • ZIPS is default and recommended for compositing workflow as it is stored as a single scanline
  • ZIP is also useful but slightly slower in compositing packages at bundles of 16 scanlines
  • You can find out more about the less common choices on the Wiki page for OpenEXR
