  Embedded alpha channel not working properly in FCP7

  Posted by Gareth Randall on April 26, 2015 at 2:20 pm

  I have a logo animation video clip in ProRes 4444, with embedded alpha. The logo is solid white. If I use it in a Motion project over background video, it renders properly, i.e. solid white.

  If I drop it over video in an FCP7 timeline, you can see the background through the white, as if the logo was set to (say) 75% opacity.

  Is there some hidden alpha channel processing setting I need to change in FCP? Playing with the composite modes doesn’t make the white go 100% solid.
