Does anyone here use Adobe Media Encoder? If so, I'm curious what settings you guys use. I have a 32bit ProRes 422 HQ high quality and high file size 3D animation I'm making for a relative, and am trying to figure out the best of both worlds to encode to a smaller file size/or format/etc.

I've seen people say VBR is better than CBR and vice versa. Different profile settings, Level settings, Bitrate settings, etc.

I rendered the animation out of Cinema 4D using Redshift with the ACES color space, and composited it in After Effects.

Workflow so far: I rendered the animation out of Cinema 4D using Redshift with the ACES color space in EXR sequence, then composited it in After Effects, and then rendered out of After Effects as ProRes 422 HQ.
