  • How to render transparent backgrounds?

    Posted by Joao Souza on December 5, 2012 at 4:55 am

    I have a green screen clip with a bird flying.
    I used chroma keyer to get rid of green screen.
    How can I render it with a transparent background?
    When I render it, vegas creates a black background.
    Thanks 😉

    Render out using Quicktime with the PNG Video format,
    and the Compressed Depth set at 32 bpp color.

    On render tab, I chose type = quicktime 7 (.mov).
    There’s no other quicktime option and nothing about png video format.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Ok I found it 😉

    You got the hang of it now with the result you want?

    [Graham Bernard] “Johnny Rofrano posted this which I have to refer to too!”

    I resemble that remark! 😉

    The interesting thing is that your link points to my answer to the same original poster asking the same question. (good thing there’s no charge for refills) lol.
