  Render Problems (PSD file)

  Posted by Rory Keenan on June 21, 2011 at 1:15 am

  My Graphics look good until I render them.

  Is there something I’m missing?

  I Imported a Photoshop file with an alpha channel.
  I need to lay this on a brown background.

  I have 2 layers of video:
  Layer 1- The logo (psd file)
  Layer 2- A color matte created in FCP

  The graphic look fine when I assemble it in a sequence
  However when I render it there is a weird pixelated halo around the graphic.
  It look terrible

  Any Solutions?

  My guess (with such little important info supplied) is you are using a sequence codec that is highly compressed like DV.

  If so then choose a sequence codec that is kind on graphics like Uncompressed 10 bit or ProRes422. Change your easy setup, make a new sequence and copy paste your sequence into the new timeline. Re-render with render set to best

  do a test export (apple-E) and see if the psd still looks bad, it could be that your psd needs a full render (no grayish-green or green bar)
