  • Format to export alpha channel with smaller file size

    Posted by Aakash Chopra on November 4, 2019 at 10:42 am

    I want to share some video files which have alpha channel. I have used .mov(animation). but it makes larger file size. Is there any good alternative that makes relatively smaller file size…

    Alpha channel and small file size don’t really go together.

    ProRes 4444 will probably be smaller than Animation codec for most footage, but it’s still pretty big.
