Today I've spent some time doing the breakdown clip to give you a visual insight to how I created the effects for my advert. Currently I'm focusing on the actual logo sequence before I do the text sequence. the way I have decided to structure the breakdowns is by disabling every node used, until I have the raw film plate. I then render a single frame (frame 100) in nuke, and each frame I re-enable the various nodes I used. I will then label and compile each frame ontop of eachother in After Effects, so that I can make up a start-to-finish run through of the effects I used in order to end up with my final shot.
Here's a quick example. These images will be piled ontop of eachother in After Effects:
