  • Rendering with Alfa Channel in Pre Pro?

    Posted by Don Cobble on January 1, 2014 at 5:48 pm

    I am able in AE to render a file with alfa channel to Cineform AVI and it works – when I render the same set up in Pre Pro I get a black screen where it is supposed to be alfa? Any Help please – I am trying to avoid the step of having to render in AE first and just do it all together.

    Not all formats/codecs support exporting alpha from Premiere. I don’t have the Cineform codec handy, but you can export PNG sequences with alpha from Premiere.

    Or use the Quicktime Animation codec.

    You have a few choices.

    I am not on my editing PC, but when you export the Cineform AVI are you selecting 32bit to get the Alpha channel?
