  • making a background on an imported video file transparent

    hi there

    im very new to after effects so this might be a very simple problem…which i hope it is 🙂

    i have imported a video file of two of my flash characters having a fight, there is no background for the two, only a white background.

    is there anyway i can make the white of this background transparent in after effects?

    thanks

    Martin

    Try the Luma Key effect.
