  Help : Rough Alpha Edges

  Posted by Chin siong Tay on March 30, 2009 at 2:17 am

  Hi someone please help me on this compositing issue!!!

  In my Final Composition timeline, i have image sequences and comped sequences(all in targa format).
  All the images in this project are rendered from the same scene with different passes.

  The alpha of the images sequence are fine but the comped sequences has rough edges.

  Anyone knows how to rectify the rough edges???

  Perhaps applying a matte choke will help. Usually cleans up rough edges.

  You shouldn’t have rough edges if the source is perfect UNLESS you’ve scaled them up or the layer is too close to the camera. ALso check for layer quality settings and the viewing resolution. If the view resolution is set to Fit to 100% a/nd the actual view is a awkward number like 45.68%, you will see poor anti aliasing.
