I have an EXR file in After Effects in OCIO color management.

The render displays as expected but as soon as I apply any exposure to it my RG Glow effects clips.

What do I need to do to prevent this? I have linked an example file so you can see my setup.

Any help is much appreciated!

So I have found that adding a OCIO Display Transform effect resolves the clipping.

Hello! I'm having trouble working with Red Giant Universe in ACES as well. Can I ask how you usually export your effects so they look correct? Thank you!

I am now using ACES 1.3 for CG content.

If this is the case for you you need to make sure your display and export color space is set to sRGB - Display/ACES 1.0 - SDR Video. This should get you the best results when working and exporting.

Hope this helps.

I am using ACES 1.2 now because of the studio's requirements. But thank you very much for your advice. Tt's very helpful, I will give it a try! Thanks, Steve!!
