  • Alpha channel- drop shadow question

    Posted by Sue Rothberg on June 27, 2011 at 3:56 pm

    hi..i created some text with a drop shadow. The background is black (since i want to key it over video in Final cut later) and the text is yellow. Problem is once i bring it in to FCP, and select Composite Mode-Add- it gets rid of the dropshadow i made in AE since the background is black. I did export RGB and Alpha but still no drop shadow. Can someone help me with this?
