  • Unable to assign Light Wrap background layer

    Posted by Tam Perl on January 24, 2010 at 9:57 pm

    I’m using BCC chroma key and light wrap in Premiere Pro. I’m running PP CS4 on an iMac with Snow Leopard.

    Essentially I’m working with two layers: My background is in Video 1 and My Greenscreen footage is video two. I’m trying to tell light wrap to use the material in Video 1 track as the wrap. However, Light Wrap wont use that layer. I try assign it by using the pull down menu for “background” — I see all the layers listed in the menu – but it will not “take” the layer I’m assigning. I’ve tried creating additional and dummy layers — whatever I try, it won’t use the layer I need.

    The layer I’m trying to use as a wrap contains a static PSD file.

    Any ideas why this is happening???

    thanks

    Tam,

    Do you know if you are using the latest version of BCC, 6.0.6?

    I’m using 6.0.3.321 I assume I can download a free update, which I’ll do now and get back to this thread. Thanks for the insight…

    Okay I HAVE now updated (I’ve confirmed in the “about” button — the plug in now states it is 6.0.6.426) but the issue has NOT been resolved. I still can’t assign my background layer….
