  • colors inverted on title

    Posted by Steven Topham on January 30, 2012 at 1:51 am

    I make things in motion pretty often and this is the first time this has happened.

    I made a title for a short video using particle emitters from their library and text. 4 titles for 4 people. When exported as .mov they all look fine. In FCP, they also look fine. I made a .mov sample of the video and 3 of the 4 titles suddenly have the colors in the particle emitters inverted. One is just fine, and they were all made from the same file, just by changing out the text. And the 3 that are inverted, don’t look exactly the same in how they are distorted.

    I tried re-making the files in Motion and then exporting the video again to the same results.

    Anybody have any idea how to fix this or why it’s happening?

    I wasn’t able to find out why my particle emitters were being inverted. Tried exporting the FCP movie as an avi to the same results.
    So, for anyone who runs into this same issue, I exported the motion project as a png image sequence. That turned out to be a dirty fix to the problem.
