FCPX ken burns effect creating lines
Can anyone tell me why pictures I’ve imported into FCPX get lines across them when I pan them with the Ken Burns effect? I have 2 other layers in the frame (the stars pic generated by FCPX and a video green screen layer which are also panning slightly.)
Below is a pic of the lines (sorry for the quality, I just zoomed in on the lines, you can see them on the angled cone of the “spaceship”.) It looks like the lines are pieces of the picture that have been shifted. The pic is a TIFF file created in Pixelmator.
Anyone know how to cure this?
Thanks!

Yeah, I created the pic in Pixelmator (a photo editor) and exported it as a TIFF file and imported it into FCPX (all on the same MacBook Pro.)
It’s happening on another scene, too (with a stack of the same type of frames.) Any ideas?

Tiffs has a few export options and some of the some times gives problems (at least used to be like that with FCP).
You may try PNG.

I agree with Rafael. Trying using PNGs instead. I like PNGs because they keep background transparency when saved in Photoshop. JPGs will show a black background where you expected transparency. Good luck.
