[Christopher] Would that be the Animation codec in Compressor? I don’t seem to see such a codec in FCP itself. Thanks.
It is a Quick Time movie.
File, Export, Using Quick Time conversion
Set the Format to Quicktime and the Options to Animation

We do these web videos all the time. It sounds like they are going to build this in Flash. Flash recognizes the alpha channel.
[Tom] Take it to your compression program to resize and encode to whatever codec the web tech guy specifies.
They will most likely want it uncompressed. Flash will compress the footage with the background when the web guy is done with it. We just give it to them as an Animation – millions +. Hope this helps.

Rent a bunch of well respected films and watch what they do. In a lot of cases it will just be a straight, L or J cut. I just saw a film a few days ago and I don’t recall seeing more then 4 dissolves during the whole movie. Hope this helps.

[Daniel] but haven’t finished BA (too much well-paied work, boring school :o), now I wanna move on…
Are you sure you want to go back to school? You may want to consider doing an internship to gain practical experience and see if you really want to enter this new field.

I agree with Grinner, the last company I worked for got over 50 reels per job opening. No one had time to watch them. I imagine most decide on a reel within the first 30 seconds or so. You can always have a quick flashy open that shows you have worked on some big stuff and then go into parts of stuff that you cut. Like perviously said, they can always ask to see more…plus that way they are asking to see more of what they specifically want to see more of. Best of luck.

The Mask took will work on a Paint Stroke layer. The reason it did not work on your Paint Stroke is because your Outline Brush Type is set to Airbrush. If it was set to Solid the Mask took would be enabled. To get around this use the Mask tool on the Group instead of the Paint Stroke layer. Hope this helps.

The Levels filter is another good one, the 3-way color corrector works wonders as well. Hope this helps.

This is probably easiest in a 2D project.
Layer 1 – “Martial Arts Tips” Text or just “Arts Tips”
Layer 2 – Your Paint stroke
Layer 3 – Just the Word “Martial”This will sandwich the paint stroke in the middle of the text, giving it the effect that it is behind the word Martial and then in front of the words Arts Tips. Hope this helps.

I have had that happen every once and a blue moon. I saved the psd as a different name and that seemed to do the trick. Hope this helps.
