I would like to ask for some help on removinng background from animations. I have a fireworks MP4 playing on the screen and
I have a revolving .mov, avi, or .wmv text or logo playing on top of that. When the animation revolves it shows a black square
background behind. I want the fireworks to show through instead of that black square (appear transparent). That's the goal.
The animations works great and revolve nicely. I have reloaded K-lite (full) on my machine. I have tried .mov, .avi, .wmv formats.
I have loaded (drag and drop) them (animations) in both IClone 6.53 and IClone 7 as layers, planes and billboards. The animations
play perfectly, they rotate 360 deg.
I created them in Photoshop (rotating text and rotating logo, with transparent backgrounds, and rendered them out as Quicktime
.mov file (I read, MP4 does not support transparent alpha chans), alpha chan is straight unmatted, ray traced draft. I have read here in the forum the remarks on using .wmv and .avi
so I converted the .mov files to .avi and .mwv, drag and dropped them back into IClone 6.53 and 7, it was entertaining but no change. Any and all suggestions appreciated. Thanks
