Export a Movie with with the chart only - no background

I need to integrate charts into a training film I am doing and I am having a problem. I need to export the chart to QT as the chart only so I can import it into Final Cut and use it as an overlay on top of other footage.
I understand transparency and "No background" come into play here be no matter how I export the chart/QT move has a background.
Is this even possible...how do I do this?
Thanks a lot.

1. You MUST set the background of each slide to NONE. It will look black I think (possibly white) but make absolutely sure it's set to NONE for every slide.
2. You must check the include transparency function in the QT export window
3. You MUST MUST MUST choose either PNG or Animation as the QT codec, and then you MUST choose Millions+ (not just Millions) as the color in the setting for that codec.
That will get you a QT movie with included alpha channel and no background.
If you need more details on how to get to those screens just post back.

  • Trying to export a movie compressed with H.264 out of AE

    I am having some issues with exporting a movie compressed with H.264. I am using AE CS3. When I output with the settings of this image:
    http://intuitionusa.com/ae.gif
    I get an error message that is below in the image.  I have to leave Quicktime in the top settings in the output module and then select H.264 in the format button.  It allows me to render out, but a message appears saying it is better to select H.264 from the "format" dialog box.
    * Also, when I export out to H.264 the file size is much larger than just using quicktime pro.  I think it might be better to export an uncompressed file from AE and then use QT pro to compress but that is going to use up a lot of disc space.

    You're probably getting that error because of a frame size/codec conflict.
    Your comp is 900x600, and the MainConcept codec is looking for a frame size of 720x480 (NTSC DV).
    Using the Quicktime wrapper to export the H.264 is a fine optioin, however, AE will not do as good of a job compressing to that codec as Quicktime Pro, or a dedicated compression application would do. AE can only cache a limited number of frames for the compression process (frames before and after the current frame), and as a result, the compression quality and filesize will not be as small as they could be by using a different tool for the job.
    As such, your supposition about rendering out an uncompressed/losslessly compressed movie and then running it through QT Pro (or another compression application) yielding superior results was a correct one.

  • Exporting a move clip with alpha channel

    Hi there,
    I’m trying to export a move clips with alpha channel.
    I’m trying to export an animation with Premiere CS5. I made an animation of a rotating object in Maya and exported it with alpha channel as tiff images. Then they are edited with Photoshop to give them a drop shadow.
    My problem is this. Can I export this tiff animation with the alpha channel?
    My plane is to use move clips over backgrounds in a game – depending on the result there are different animations playing on top of several different backgrounds. There for the objects has to have a transparent/alpha channel over the backgrounds.
    Again the reason for this is the complexity of the game and to make the game looking as real as possible. I’m hoping for some help here to make my plan possible
    …thanks

    Thanks alot for the help.
    But now I’m wondering how to get the file size down?
    The 32bit and alpha channel just increase the file size from about 1MB to 9,3MB, which is pretty much??
    …any ides mate?

  • Exporting an .mov file with timecode

    Hi -
    I'm trying to find the best way to export an .mov file from Premiere or Encoder with timecode either burned in (as well as embedded in the file). Right now when I export the .mov files no timecode is coming through. Normally I would be able to read the timecode with the earlier version of Quicktime, and I can see it is just starting at 0.
    I'm trying to export as .mov files so they can be given to transcribers.
    Thanks for any help!
    Elisa

    It get's it from where you tell it to in the effect's settings.  If it wasn't right, correct it.

  • CS3: Exporting to .mov not rendering the correct size??

    I'm using Flash CS3 and trying to export a Flash movie I made
    as a .mov file. The file size is 1020x574. I export with the
    "Render width" set to 1020, the "Render height" set to 574, and
    "Maintain aspect ratio" is set (this is the same size as my stage,
    fyi). However, every time I export it the resulting movie is some
    completely different, distorted size, like 800x150 or something.
    It's the same size every time.
    Any ideas what's wrong here?

    Okay, I found part of my problem: the "render width/height"
    has nothing to do with the output size. I clicked on the Settings
    option, and saw that the Size was set to that strange size. I
    clicked on Size to change it, and saw it was set to "Current" -- at
    this point I realized that I had changed my stage size. The size
    was incorrectly reporting the "current" size as the old stage size.
    So I switched to a different setting, then back. However, that
    didn't fix it. Switching to a different compression type did for
    the "current" size to update, though.
    However, I have another problem: my exported .mov file plays
    very slowly and choppy. My timeline framerate is 30, and so is the
    export setting. However, it plays very choppy when the .mov file is
    played back.
    Any ideas there?

  • How do I export a .mov file with timecode that matches the timecode on my project's timeline?

    Hi:
    This seems like it would be an easy thing to figure out, but I'm striking out so far:
    I have a long, 10-minute source video (actually a series of 16mm film clips that were telecined to a single 10-bit uncompressed .mov with continuous timecode by a film lab) on my project's timeline.  I need to be able to export small sections of the timeline to individual .mov files--and I need to be able to open the resulting short .mov files in a footage logging application called F5.  I'm currently trying to render these small individual videos as H.264 .mov files, since that's a format F5 can read.  Rendering/exporting the 'work area' selection from my project works fine, so that's no problem.
    The problem I'm having is that timecode of the resulting H.264 .mov files don't match the timecode on my Premiere project's timeline--they always start at 00:00:00:00.  I don't want that.  If I render out (for example) a section of 00:05:10:00 to 00:07:00:00 on my project's timeline, I need the exported .mov file's timecode to start at 00:05:10:00 and run to 00:07:00:00, not restart at 00:00:00:00.  Is this possible?
    I'm running Premiere Pro CS6.0.2 on a Mac OSX 10.8.2, all updates installed.
    Thanks very much.

    works using " title" ( cause its alpha ) but doesnt work using black video...gotta jump thru hoops to do it that way..is nuts...so title works fast
    so you put cti where you want to start, put title up there above your video, put timecode in, make it " generate" , put start time in, and drag title to the end of your work bar for export...and it should be good...
    or of course ann's way is good too

  • When exporting from keynote to quicktime the video only includes the first 3 slides

    I'm exporting a keynote presentation to quicktime and the resulting video only has the first 3 slides in it. What could be the issue here? All my software is up to date.
    Thanks,

  • Is MOV file with mp2 audio tracks compatible with QT player?

    Hi,
    I export multiple .mov files with certain video stream and mpeg layer 2 audio stream inside, using MPEG Streamclip/VLC/FFMpegX. However it turns out that the sound part is not playbak correctly inside QT player. Is QT player not supposed to playback this kind of file? BTW, I'm on OSX 10.7.3, Quicktime player is version 10.1.

    Many possible answers here. Since you did not indicated the video compression format, my only recomendation would be to try playback in the QT 7 Player for your specific combination of video, audio, and file container. For instance, "muxed" MPEG-2/MP2 data in an MPEG, MPG, or MOV file container will play correctly in the QT 7 Player. On the other hand, the MPEG and and MPG files only play the video in the QT X Player and the MOV file container will not even open in the QT X Player.
    Basically, if you check the QT X Player web page, you will note that MPEG-1, layer 2 audio is not supported by this player. However, whiile MPEG-1, layer 2 audio is still basically supported by the QT 7 Player, certain audio, video, and file container combinations may be problematic.

  • "General error" while trying to export my movie.

    Hi all, I saw a few threads with this topic but no one seems to have a solution so I thought I would post a new one hoping for a miracle
    I have a small movie that I made that I want to export with "using quicktime conversion" option. As soon as I rename the title and choose a destination, I get the "General Error" message that pops up with no number or error code attached to it. I tried saving the file to different hard drives with a lot of space to spare and still won't work. I also did the "render all" option before trying to export my movie. BTW, I'm only at around 11 minutes of movie and my whole project should be about 2 hours...
    Also, I chose the correct AVCHD 1920 X 1080 codec since my original data comes from my Canon HF200.
    When i was only a few minutes into my project, I did a test film and I managed to export it but had no sound when playing the test movie on my WDTV (that's another problem though) but now it won't even export at all... Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    A couple things to try:
    1. Decrease the amount of RAM allowed to the application and see if it was a problem with the OS not having enough to function.
    2. Basic troubleshooting procedure, trashing preferences and repairing permissions:

  • Can't Export to .mov

    I'm attempting to Export using Export > Quicktime Movie... It only gives me the option to Include Audio & Video, Audio or Video Only, Markers and whether or not to create a Self-Contained Movie...
    Whenever I hit Save, it creates a Final Cut Express Movie File, not the .mov I'm expecting... I was able to do this before so I'm not sure if I accidentally changed something... Please help...

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    When your export a quicktime movie, the file is encoded with the same codec as your sequence (and miniDV NTSC or AIC are pretty too large files for posting on the net).
    Did you check on facebook to get specific infos about supported codec and frame size?
    Once you'll get those infos, *export with quicktime conversion* and select the right settings to get a suitable format for posting on the web.

  • Quality of Exported QT movie

    Ok, here is a quick test that I've done. I set my Canon XL2 camera up in 24p Advanced and captured myself in front of the camera (yeah I know, scary stuff) just to show where I'm loosing quality. I'm in 16:9 24pa on the camera.
    I then attached the camera to final cut, created a new project, selected easy setup for 24p advanced pulldown. Selected File capture and captured a little footage.
    I then attempt to drag the footage to the time line where I'm warned that it needs to set the seq to that of the clip, I tell it ok and all looks good. I then check properties for the clip and it is in 23.98fps and the viewer shows the image on the clip crystal clear. I then selected file export quicktime movie and kept the current settings and exported.
    The image below has the quicktime movie opened and displaying the current location that I'm in in the FCP viewer window. Look at my eyes in the two images and you should immediately see why I'm not happy. In The FCP image on the right everything is very clear and sharp, but in the QT movie everything is fuzzy.
    Forget external monitors or anything else as I'm trying to send this footage to the web only. Why is it so fuzzy? What might I do to make the FCP viewer and the QT movie be at least the same quality? From what I've read, studied and heard from everyone, the FCP viewer is a low quality image and I shouldn't use it to judge my overall production. However, from what I see here and everyone else, its the highest quality image I've ever seen. I don't get this sharp of an image going to the DVD or to the computer screen through quick time.
    Thanks for any and all help with this matter as this currently is a total show stopper for me.

    To set the file to High Quality open it in QT and do "⌘+J" (Movie properties), select the video track and check the High Quality option. Check this image (is from spanish QT but you'll get the idea):
    To show the right aspect ratio check this doc about the Conform perture setting in QT:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303928
    Both settings will not affect your movie itself but the display setting when you open using QT.
    Hope that helps !

  • QT Pro Crashes When I Ask It To Export a MOV to an AVI

    I'm trying to use my newly-purchased QT Pro to export from MOV (captured with Casio digital camera) to uncompressed AVI so that I can edit my movie in Pinnacle. When I click the options > video settings so that I can specify the codec etc, QT disappears and windows makes an error beep (the 'thrum' chord sound). Any ideas ?

    Try turning off video Hardware Acceleration in Windows.
    Go to CONTROL PANEL--DISPLAY--click the SETTINGS tab--click the ADVANCED button (you may get a warning message here; just click OK)--click the TROUBLESHOOT tab and finally move the Hardware Acceleration slider all the way to NONE. Click OK
    I had the same issue that you describe and this fixed it for me. However, if you are using your PC for games and other video-intensive applications, you'll want to move the Hardware Acceleration back to Maximum after you're done with Quicktime.

    This problem has also been plaguing me today. Here are my specifics and how I solved it (Expanding on what Quentin Holmes mentioned)
    CONFIRMED WORK AROUND! The .m4v file gets created while encoding, but Adobe Media Encoder does not re-pack it back into the .mp4 unless you select the "Export Audio" in Adobe Premier export prior to queuing. If you don't want audio, mute the individual tracks and still export audio.
    My details:
    Just bought a GH4, shooting 4k 25fps MOV, trying to simply trim a few clips and export them as H.264 .mp4 with no audio. (By the way it would be nice if we could export 4k .MOV files from the camera back into .MOV once finished editing, but in premier that frame resolution is not supported)
    Specs: Mac Mini, Quad Core i7, 16GB Ram, OSX 10.9.4, Adobe Premier Pro CS6 6.0.5, Adobe Media Encoder 6.0.2.81
