Hi every body.  
Excuse me if this theme exist somewhere else, but i don’t found any relevant response.  
I’am creating virtual production project whit abstract scenes same as to image below. I have scene wich is compound of two 3D mesh.  
A plane with reflective material in it and the sphere. Everything else is just light and atmosphere. In preview and simulation mode sems to be everything correctly.  
However, when I use the cg\_element the scene contains dark areas.  
I wuld be glad if someone hellp me.  
Thank you .
