After we've done the post pro work,
how should we save the final image?

now we stand on the crossroad, we can use either
8-bit display referred format or 32-bit scene

referred one, look, because we have done everything
we wanted to do with our high dynamic range

light data, now we can just bake it into the 8-Bit
display referred file and just view it as an image.

it makes perfect sense if the image that we
are about to export is the final stop, the

final destination. an image on Artstation for
example and you won't do any extra post processing

work on it and then there is nothing wrong with
fixating the display encoding within the image.

but if you still want to retain the wide dynamic
range of colors, such as the intensities in this

hot spot that now go well above the 100 in the red
channel then the open exr, the 32-bit image format

would be the natural choice as we have already
proved. it makes sense if the image that you are

about to save will be used as an intermediary
image holding some important data for a further

post-processing let's say or for exchange with
a different software for that matter. generally

open EXR is such a great format for pretty much
anything related to computer graphics and it has

such a miraculous compression as well. when used in
conjunction with a half precision of the floating

point the resulting exr's are super lightweight,
much more lightweight than 8-bit pngs for example

but that is of topic my friends, let's get
back on track. okay so we have used quite a

lot of nodes to build a cinematic post-processing
pipeline in Blender. the next logical step would

be to pack it into some kind of a group that
could be exported in between the Blender files.

so I'm drawing the rectangle around all
the nodes we created in the compositor,

then right click, group. that puts the whole
chain into into the group and we can see that

we are within the group right now, we can press
tab to get out of it. tab is our stop word when

dealing with groups :) otherwise we can get stuck in
there. I'm calling it postpro_01

and actually we can mute and unmute the
whole group, which is very convenient.

and if you want to change something, you
you press tab again and find what you need,

tweak what you need, tab to get out. that was a
quick introduction to grouping nodes in Blender,

now this node group should be easily exportable
via the append functionality or Blender which

we will show in just a moment. after I neaten up
the nodes for no particular reason :)

here I opened a random Blender file
to show the process of appending the

node group, you go file, append, search
for where you have put the .blend file,

for example this one, double click on
it then go down the node tree folder

and here we go! double click again. now Shift
A and it should be visible in the group menu

and just plug it in.

obviously when it comes to post pro, one size
doesn't fit all, but this whole configuration

of nodes will be as useful as it was in
the previous scene, what we'll need to do

is just go through every individual node and
tweak it to our taste. I really hope that this

post-processing formula will help you to bring
out the best cinematic qualities of your lighting

formula and they will work together. my name
is Gleb Alexandrov, you are still watching

the Cinematic Lighting in 3D video course,
now let's do a quick recap of this section.
