Placing composition w/ video
Hey whats up! There is obviously something wrong I am doing here but I can’t tell!
I am trying to create a green lens flare that shoots out when a black box opens. The video for the black box is a QT.
I have created my lens flare using two solids, a black solid (where the lens flare has been placed) and a green solid (to create the green colour).
I have the animation exactly how I want it, but when I try to place my animatied lens flare over the video, it cuts straight to the lens flare comp instead of superimposing the lens flare over the video as I want. IE, the video begins, and the box opens then it cuts straight to my black solid and green lens flare.
I have been thinking that it is an alpha channel issue that I am having but I can’t seem to figure it out. Possibly that the QT was rendered out in such a way that won’t allow things to play in the alpha channel.
Am I missing something here? Or is there an easier way to do this possibly?

try changing the layer with the lens flare color’s mode to screen. or add the unmult filter to the layer with the lens flare.
