Import Image from Photoshop

I am trying to import an image with a transparent background from photoshop to FCP. But when I import it into FCP the background of the image appears white. Does anyone have a resolution to this problem? Thank you.

It worked, thanks so much Steve. You really helped me out. I'm a filmmaker and my DVD is coming out in 2 weeks so this was the finishing touches on it - trying to get the FBI logo on the warning for the intro into the film
Thanks again.
Warm Regards,
Hedley

  • Help me import images from Photoshop into a Premiere Elements project!

    How do I add photos from Photoshop to existing Premire Elements project.

    If you have edited the Images in Photoshop, just Save_As PSD (or TIFF). Set the Still Duration to the desired time, in PrE's Edit>Preferences. Then, Import them into PrE. From the Project Panel, just drag the Image(s) to the Timeline, and to an appropriate Video Track. Say, if you want to place the Image between Clips, just drag it there, and the rest of the Clips/Images on that Video Track will Ripple.
    If you want to replace parts of a Clip, with that Image, just hold down Ctrl/Cmd and drag to the appropriate location.
    If you want to overlay it, with an existing Clip, just place it onto a higher Video Track. Note: this yields the same general result, as the method above.
    I strongly suggest that you Scale your Image in Photoshop, to match, or nearly so, the Frame Size of your Project's Preset.
    Good luck, and hope that helps,

  • Missing effects from imported images from Photoshop.

    When I import from Photoshop the text files I bring In are missing some effects applied to them in Photoshop (i.e. drop shadow, outer glow etc.)  Why would this be am I missing a step why I bring it in as a composition cropped layers and convert them to editable text or is it a coding error on my end.  Any advise would help.
    Sincerely,
    Confused

    Just a personal anecdote.
    I have several Photoshop people who try to provide me with files for After Effects and Final Cut Pro projects. Bless their little hearts, all they understand is how to print on white paper. It has taken many years to convince them to just give the raw, naked, un-effected stuff and to allow me, sometimes with their guidance, to apply all effects and filters in AE.
    This just makes all of my work in AE simpler and cleaner; I know exactly how things will look as I go to video.

  • Importing Graphics from Photoshop Fails

    I am trying to import images from Photoshop CS3 and keep getting an error message, "Unsupported format or damaged file."
    The graphics have been sent to me (from a client) as vector images in Adobe Illustrator. After an unsuccessful attempt to import these images from AI, I copied these images to PS and saved them out as PSD files. Still no dice. Can anyone shed some light on my delima?

    You're welcome. Happy editing.
    Cheers

  • Problem: importing a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere.

    Dear Adobe community,
    I am trying to import a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere Pro CC. Whatever file format I choose to export from Photoshop, Premiere Pro CC will not import the file correctly. When I import is, two things occur: 1) the image gets imported, but the white background is still there or 2) the image gets an error "The importer reported a generic error".
    Does anyone have an idea how I can get an image with a white background transparent into Premiere Pro CC.
    Specs:
    MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, eind 2013)
    2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
    16GB RAM
    1536MB Intel Iris videocard
    Thanks!
    Christiaan

    You need to make sure the image has an alpha channel.
    Images like jpeg dont have an alpha channel.
    Psd or png do and the image has to be RGB.
    Make sure the background in PS is also transparant.

  • Best file for importing images from Illustrator and Photoshop for small file sizes

    Hello Adode consults!
    I'm in the process of preparing an inDesign file for a school project -- I've already had a few harrowing experiences sending large files to the printer that are too large to process (and a very grumpy computer, etc). The end result will be a poster around 36 inches by 4 or 5 feet.
    I'm wondering if there are any best practices for making sure that the files imported into InDesign are a manageable size to begin with. Should I, for instance, be saving each file as a jpeg before placing in Indesign?
    Thanks!
    -Katherine

    No, you should not save every file as JPG before placing it in INDesign. JPG is only usefull for raster images (like photos) without any transparency in high quality.
    When you place images use:
    For raster images from Photoshop psd (rgb with color profile)
    For raster images from Photoshop with form layers, texts or any vector element use PDF (or PDP) with layers.
    For vector graphics from Illustrator use AI files or PDF.
    For layouts from other InDesign projects use either the INDD itsself or export a PDF/X4.
    But to the printer deliver a PDF according to their standards. E.g. when they need CMYK files export as PDF/X1a with the required output color space and the resolution they want. Produce the pdf via Export (Print).
    Don't deliver open INDD. File size should for printing projects not be an issue.

  • 'cut-out' images from Photoshop import into FCE with unwanted background

    I want to import some custom 'cut-out' images from Photoshop, but they come into FCE with a rectangular background around them. Is there a way to import just the irregular 'cut-out' image?
    Bob

    Make sure the images are RGB 8-bit and in a format that carries an alpha channel or Photoshop transparency like Photoshop, TIFF, PNG, even PICT.

  • How to insert cropped images from photoshop without the white background

    Basically all I want to do is take a peice of writing from a video and insert it into another video. To do this I've took a screenshot of the font from the video and imported it into photoshop. I've then cropped/cut/took the the peice of writing I want, letter by letter. I want to be able to insert it into another video, but whenever I attempt to do it, I have the default white background of photoshop. Is there anyway to insert an image from photoshop, without taking the background with it, or even insert a layer from photoshop straight into final cut pro? Sorry if this is confusing.

    I don't think so. I cropped the letters, put them each an individual file, removed the background, saved them as a TIF then tried to import them onto Final Cut Pro, but a white background still appeared in the TIF file. Basically I just want to make the background transparent I believe.

  • I have just purchased a Nikon D7000 and iPhoto downloads jpgs but does not show them. It shows an empty frame. If you double click the frame it will show the image. I have tried importing images from the Nikon provided software and the same thing happens.

    I just purchased a Nikon D7000. However, iPhoto does not display JPEG images. I seems to download ok, but displays only an empty box. Double clicking on the box opens the image in a single display window. It does the same thing when importing from Nikon's supplied software. Forget about handling RAW files. Now, I'm having difficulty importing JPGs from Photoshop files for slide shows or use in iMovie.

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Problem with importing images from Nikon S60

    I have been using photoshop elements for several years - currently on Version 8.  I've had no issues importing images from my Nikon D70 - I choose the option to store the images in folders by "shot date" and this has always worked.
    My wife has started using a Nikon S60 to take photos - when trying to import these photos they all end up in a folder with today's date.  I've treid a couple of times to be sure that I didn't make a mistake in setting the import options.  I've checked the "properties" of the images and the date their shows the shot date...
    any ideas?

    Seems unusual behavior. I guess the obvious thing to do is to simply rename the folder although that’s a bit annoying.
    Have you tried selecting one of the other shot date formats from the downloader, perhaps to match the camera date format?

  • Imported images from iphone are unsupported in aperture?

    When I try to import images from my iphone into aperture, they come in as gray boxes. When I click on these I get a message that the file format is unsupported. Anyone else running into this?!

    Also, I tried image capture and tried to open the jpg's in preview. This also didn't work and said the format is unsupported. Photoshop gives the following message:
    Could not complete your request because a JPEG marker segment length is too short (the file may be truncated or incomplete).

  • What settings are best to export sharpened images from Photoshop to use in Final Cut?

    I need to give a professional photographer the correct dimensions to export her images from Photoshop for me to use in Final Cut. I told her:
    1080 x 1920, 300 dpi, and also to Convert Images to Apple RGB (Final Cut doesnt work well with Adobe RGB, I am told). Her images have alot of heavy sharpening on them--she is an artist--and when i import them into Final Cut, many of the lines that should be crisp are zig-zagged, and if I apply motion to them, they "shake."
    My problem is specific to images that have been highly sharpened in Photoshop; i have imported lots of professional images before with no problem. I am on deadline and hope someone out there will see this.

    You were right about trashing the finalcut plist. As well as a very specific set of directions I now have put together from what you and others have said elsewhere, and this is it, i hope it helps others with their Canon XHA1 and Final Cut Express HD:
    Trash the final cut preferences (plist) in your Home - LIbrary.
    go into the Canon XHA1 menu, make sure that you're not set to down-convert to DV.
    Get out of the menu. Shut the camera off,
    plug in the firewire cable to both the camera and computer,
    and turn the camera back to VCR mode.
    Open up Final Cut, and go to Easy Setup ,
    choose HDV- Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60
    This worked beautifully but took me nearly four hours to figure out, including researching the web and experimenting in FCE HD
