If we pretend that Compositing is as simple as A over B, then ACES is
basically:

ACES 2065-1 EXRs delivered for VFX, on ingest they get converted to the
working space of ACEScg

Work on them as ACEScg (use ACEScc as a log like space)

Hand back ACES 2065-1 EXRs on output.

To view use the RRT + ODT that matches your monitor calibration.


Nuke 10 can do this using the OCIO configs and a bit of default
configuration setting.

However as nothing is ever quite that simple, so going beyond that becomes
an "it depends" kind of answer.

As an example we do the ingest and egress portions as specific steps in the
pipeline and keep try everything the artists see as ACEScg on disk, we also
have a system that "knows" the colour space of all image assets and so can
set the colorspace knobs etc for the artists. To keep the number of options
down we also create cut down versions of the OCIO config for each project
with reduced numbers of colour spaces.
