I'm looking for a way to save both the plain render layer frame and composite frame in an animation render (PNG sequence output); is this possible?

I simply added a File Output node connected to the Render Layer output in the compositor, as well as a File Output node connected to the last compositing node:

    $\begingroup$ The second File Output node is unnecessary, as you will already be rendering out a file for the Composited output. This solution will write out 3 files to disk per frame. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @ToddMcIntosh True, but I was simply rendering still frames at this point and the above method suited my needs. $\endgroup$
