  • four alphas in one asset

    Hi,

    I have to do four alphas in different space spots of the same asset, a photography album.

    How can I do this? Once I have done the four layers masks above the same video album asset,

    I export the whole movie as an animation+, as I have done before with single masks, and import

    into FCP. Unfortunately, FCP does not recognize the alpha channels.

    Any advise?

    Regards,

    Jorge

    It is impossible to have more than one alpha channel in a video layer.
    It is a simple matter to assign different grayscale images or movies to each of the four channels.
    However, then you must be able to tell all of your alpha-processing filters to access only a single color channel from the video layer.

    This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”
