I’m curious what kind of teams you’re working in that you’re handing compressed archives of image sequences? And using tiff vs EXR (unless you mean purely after compositing)?

Another reason to use image sequences is that it’s easier to re-render just a portion of the sequence easily. Granted this can be done with video too, but has higher overhead.

But even then why does the GPU encoding change the fact that you’d send it to another NLE? I just feel like there are a lots of jump in thought process here.
