    I’m sure that I’m missing some setting or something. I created several graphic elements in photoshop, saved them as psd files, imported them into AE, and when I was done compositing and animating them I rendered them out with the render queue.

    The problem is, when I overlay them into my footage in FC, they suddenly have a black background and obscure the footage that I want them to overlay.

    This hasn’t happened before, so I’m sure that I’ve just completely forgotten some step but, for the life of me, I can’t figure it out.

    Any suggestions?

    As always, thanks for the time and input!

    That’s probably it…

    …this is why I need to start drinking coffee in the mornings. Thanks, Dave!
