Alpha Channel keeping for FCP
AE CS3 to FCP 6
I read some solutions in here to get me this far. I may need to finish the entire effect here in AE but am wondering if it is at all possible to take it into FCP.
I have a video of a ghost-girl wearing black. I see the transparent background. I export as Animation RGB+ALPHA, but there is a solid black background.
If I use the UnMult plugin, she dissappears. But when I export, it works but I can barely see her. Just a little bit of the face. Is it impossible with a dark image? -

No, its very possible with a dark image, for instance take a black solid and resize it so its smaller than your comp window, and choose to view only the alpha, the black solid will show up clear as day white. If your exporting correctly which i believe you are, (i dont know all the settings) than there must be some opaque image in the bg. Thats my 2 cents.
Search around more in the forums and see if you can find anything.

If you open in QT you see Black… when you place it into FCP over a video…. it will key
The UnMult plugin is not needed

I thought that would be the case but it isn’t. I think I’m exporting it wrong because it doesn’t automatically key.
Is it right to export as animation quicktime, RGB+ALPHA?
