Can I do all my work with 8 bpc and then change the comp to 32 bpc for final render?

Well, I know I can, but I want to know if this is a fine workflow.
Since non of the effects in AE are destructive, when I change from 8-bit to 32-bit everything gets recalculated, right?
To give you more detail, I'm working with RAW footage from my Canon 5Dm3 and I'm using Element 3D and RedGiant plugins. The whole thing has tons of comps and effects.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

The look of blend modes, color correction, and blurs, gradients, and motion blur will change so you'll need to check everything carefully before you render. FYI I seldom work in anything but 32Bit because most of my work involves a lot of blending and layering and that all works better. If I do 8 bit projects they are usually just simple graphics. Even those projects are usually converted to 16bit for rendering.
Most of the time I render tests for client approval using the AME using the Vimeo or YouTube h.264 presets, but most approved projects are rendered to a 32 bit image sequence if they are to be used again or at minimum a 10 bit 444 Digital lIntermediate for archiving. Compressed deliverables are always rendered using the Adobe Media Encoder or specialized software requested by the client.

    The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
    1. You don't own another Mac.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    2. You do own another Mac.
    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
    Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.

  • When i take a picture with my iphone and then forward the picture in an email (regardless of picture size) it will not send - any thoughts????? Thanks.

    When I take a picture with my iPhone and then forward the picture to an emaila ddress (regardless of picture size) it will not send the email with the pciture enclosed - any thoughts on how to fix ?????
    Thanks -

    The collum to the right listed similar problems.  The solution appears to be that under smtp outgoing settings the user name and password are listed as optional.  I have not plugged in the information and it seems to be working.  However from my office it always allowed the relaying.  The true test will be when I try to respond later from the road.
    Thank you for your help.

  • I should know, but I don't. If I upload all of my photos to iCloud and then delete them off of my iPhone (for more storage space), will they all remain in iCloud or am I missing the point of iCloud?

    I should know, but I don't. If I upload all of my photos to iCloud and then delete them off of my iPhone (for more storage space), will they all remain in iCloud or am I missing the point of iCloud?

    Right now, there is no way to upload and access photos in iCloud. You need to import them to a computer if you want to be able to retrieve them later:

  • Existing Apple ID is not longer working with Face Time and Message on the iPhone after iOS 6

    After the IOS 6 update on my iPhone the Apple ID is not longer working with Face Time and Message. Each time I try to log in I receive the message that the password or the user is not right. But they are, because on all other devices and all other parts of the iPhone (iCloud, AppStore, iTunes) they are working. Other Apple IDs are working fine.
    What's wrong? Any idea?
    Thanks

    It sounds like you restored from an old back-up.  Did you back-up just before your software update?  It will use your last one and if your last back-up was a ywear old then it will use that one.
    In general, if you are getting these messages on your iPhones select logout (when you get that Apple Id request) and then log back in with your newer ID.
    Sorry for your losses.

  • Can I save a keynote presentation in Power Point and then use the power point on my Macbook?

    My library has a Toshiba TW 650 projector that is used by PCs. I am going to be giving a presentation created on Keynote.
    My DVI-VGA connector did not work for my 2009 Macbook to the projector. Can I sve the Keynote presentation to power point and then
    show the presentation on a PC with the Power Point version?

    Hello redffox,
    You can export the project to a .PPT file as outlined here: Keynote '09: Creating a PowerPoint slideshow http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3698
    To create a PowerPoint slideshow:
    Choose Share > Export, click PPT (PowerPoint) and then click Next.
    Type a name and choose a location for the file, and then click Export.
    Additional Information
    Note: PowerPoint doesn’t support some Keynote features:
    Some bulleted text items may be lost. If you hide the bulleted text on a slide (by deselecting Body in the Slide inspector), it is deleted from the outline when you export.
    PowerPoint doesn’t support alpha-channel graphics, so if you use a photo cutout frame, the image behind it will appear in front. You may also notice slight variations in other graphics.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • How can I get MagicTrackpad to work with Boot Camp and Windows Vista?

    Just installed Lion and then installed Magic Trackpad. Now I need to know how to get the Magic Tackpad to work with Windows Vista in my Boot Camp partition. Windows Bluetooth recognizes the Magic Trackpad but it says the device won't confirm the passkey. No passkey came with the Magic Trackpad and the option to not use a passkey still doesn't achieve connection with Windows. Suggestions/ comments, please.
    TIA,
    Picman

    UPDATE
    Just completed several lengthy sessions with Apple Tech Support (escalated to excellent Sr. Advisor). Bottom line is that there seems to be no answer to the problem of the Magic Trackpad not being able to maintain its pairing/connection with Windows (Vista in my case) or OS X (10.7 in my case) when switching Boot Camp partitions. In fact, when trying to re-pair it is necessary to remove the MTP batteries first. To pair at all with Windows requires the use of the Bluetooth passkey "0000" (not provided in MTP documentation). This achieves limited MTP/Windows functionality (cursor and "click" control only - with BC 3.1. BC 3.2 is supposed to provide more gestures, but I have not gotten there yet). Appears that when switching back to OS X, that passkey has remained with the MTP and is not what OS X is looking for, so it fails the connection. Removing/replacing the batteries probably dumps the passkey and allows the OS X connection. The Sr. Advisor says he sees this issue often (including with Windows 7) in their internal chat rooms, but no solution. He will be referring it to the engineers and will let me know the outcome. Meantime, assuming I keep the MTP, I'll have to resign myself to using a wired mouse when going to Windows (not a huge inconvenience, since it's only for Quicken; but the issue is worse than "in-elegant" for Apple!
    I am satisfied that I have obtained the best possible help from Apple on this issue. If anybody has more, please reply.

  • I have been trying to make the screen saver on my iMac 27" to work with no results. I change the settings and don't work neither. Please I need help

    Since I bought this 27" IMac desktop I've been changing the settings for the screen saver and has been impossible to make it work. My screen goes black and no screen saver. I have try everything, If anyone can help me with this issue I really appreciate. thanks

    first of all the only purpose for screensaver since we moved to LCD panels is if you think it look pretty
    the old tube crt screens would get the image they displayed for a very long time burned into the phosphor
    that being said then make sure your Energy Saver is not set to turn off the screen before or the same time as the screensaver is suppose to kick in

  • I want to cancel one iTunes store account, and then change the email associated with my other account to the deleted email. Will it work?

    Hi,
    I have two itunes accounts. One account has all my store purchases and is associated with my school email address, which I will eventually lose. The OTHER account has NO purchases on it, and is associated with my gmail account.
    What I want is for my itunes account with all my purchases, to be associated my permanent gmail email account. However, if I try to change it, Apple of course tells me that the particular email address is already associated with another account. And, as others have said on the forums, you can't merge two accounts.
    So, would it be possible to delete the gmail account entirely? And then, after that is done, change the email on my other account to my gmail address? If so, how do I do that?
    Thanks!

  • How can I find all locked layers (visible or not) and then Unlock All at once?

    OK, for anyone who cares here's the scenario.
    I was on a tight deadline. I got a massively layered, -- nested folders everything --  .psd
    I'm using Photoshop CS 5.5
    I only needed the visible layers.  So, I go to "Delete Hidden Layers" right? Ooops it was grayed out, I could not use it -- Ahhh that was because of the locked layers...
    No problem. Ugh wait.
    Then I realized -- in the complicated layer structure I had to go through every single folder, open it, look for a locked layer and unlock it (nested folders inside of nested folders etc.). If the layer was not visible and it was locked, I had to first turn it to visible, then unlock it, and then turn it off again.
    Aaaarrggghhh I was on a deadline, and I just didn't have time -- but I had to do it anyway.
    This was a painful experience... I'm telling designers from now on NEVER SEND ME A PSD WITH LOCKED LAYERS AGAIN
    It would have been so much easier if I could just search for "locked layers", and "unlock all."
    Does anyone know of a solution? Probably something I should have known years ago, or maybe a feature request?
    Thanks!!!
    :B

    This feature is now available in Photoshop CS6. Layers panel has a layer filter option that simplifies the workflow and is designers dream come true! Please see screenshots below:

  • IPod Touch not working with Sony Stereo, and its not the stereo

    I just bought a Sony Stereo with an iPod Dock, it originally played my iPod Touch the first day I had it, but now it doesn't. The stereo works with other iPods in the house so I know it isn't the stereo. Could there be something wrong with my iPod?

    You didn't mention which Sony with built-in iPod dock, so if I am to assume it's the same as mine, the CMT-BX20i, it still works fine for playing and charging. Does the IPT charge/sync with the USB cable still?

  • I can no longer change my song names like i used to. i use to be able to right click and go to "get info" and then change the song name, artist and album, now i can't is there any other way to change the songs name and info

    When I get songs and put them on my itunes accout on my computer I used to be able to rename them right clicking, going to "get info" and then renaming everything I wanted like song name, album and artwork. I also use to be able to click on the song then click and hold on it and be able to rename it. But all the songs I have gotten after the last update have not been able to be renamed in any of the old ways I use to be able to. Is there any other way to rename songs because I know I can't undo updates and that seems to be whats causing it.
    Thankyou for your time
