Hi,
I'm fairly new to Maya, and need to know about multi-pass rendering. Can anyone tell me how I can render out seperate mattes for different objects, so I'll be able to alter colour balance and levels on seperate objects in post. Also, I'd like to know how I can do shadow pass renders and seperate renders for other elements such as specular.
I'm using Maya 6 and may use either the Maya software renderer, or Mental Ray.
Thanks,

Simon Robson

if maya software its easy just go to the render gloabls and go to the end and you will find it there with the render layer tab BUT with mr
