I asked this in the AE forum, but this may be a better place to ask...

I have an animation that came out of MAX a little banded but after I applied a glow or 2 to a coule layers in AE
- It looks really banded or the dithering is off or (whatever) take a look...

How could I prevent this and/or fix it ?
Or why is this happening ?

Thanks guys,

hope it helps...
try saving your stuff in 48bit png, SGI or Cineon formats in max and aftereffects...
(don't think 48bit png is supported in AFX output)

either that, or use dithering of some sort..

Well unfortunately,
I've already rendered this project
but fortunately it seems to just be the ground plane thats affected so, I'm thinking that I'll rerender the ground and mask it into this.

Thanks guys,
