Importing transparent logo from photoshop into Motion 1.01..

I am trying to import a transparent logo into motion that I did in photoshop..
No matter how I save it in photoshop, when I import in motion it always comes up with white background and never just the logo.. I have tried clicking on the Alpha type in the inspector and then dragging it on to the stage but no luck!!
Not sure if there is even a way to do it? I have the logo and have it as a png, psd and .targa but cant get it so its just the logo..?
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks so much in advance..

I figured it out!
Just had to research in the help menu more!!

Importing a logo from photoshop in FC

I can't seem to get a logo that came from photoshop to look correct in FC.
I would like to use it like a bug in the lower right corner. I have tried importing several different ways. It either has a white background that I can't get rid of or looks transparent but looks bad, unreadable.
What is proper way to do this so it it is just my logo over top of the video. Think of network bugs in the corners of the frame.
Help

I used it as a jpeg, a psd and I think a tiff and it did not have any background.
When I dropped it into the canvas and onto the timeline it was really distorted. It didn't have a background but it didn't look right. The ones that did have a background looked alright, but had the unwanted background.
It did not have any other layers but it did have some layer styles. Drop shadow and something else I can't remember right now. I did render it too, no help.
Any thoughts?

Importing an image from photoshop into FCP7

Hello
I have some images in photoshop that I need to bring into FCP7...I need them to look transparent so the image (video) can be seen. The images are coffee stains .I need to know how I import them. Any help would be great. I have imported images before but I think these have to be on layers to get the transparent look.The images are in layers? Do I import the layers?
Question 2.
I have a plugin and need to import it into my filters in FCP7..I know this should be easy but could someone help with that also...
Question 3.
Does anybody have any advice about Luca visual effects?
thank you
philip

If you want transparency, make an Alpha channel or put the objects on a transparent background in Photoshop. You must save the images in a format that supports transparency such as TIFF.
You import them by clicking the Import Files button or simply drag onto the FCP Browser from the Finder.
2. A regular plug in or an FXPlug plugin?
3. No. Why not use the Contact link on his website and ask the man himself? http://www.lucavisualfx.com/contact.htm

Please, a DEFINITIVE ANSWER: import logos from Photoshop w/ no background

Hi,
I've scoured these forums for a solution to this question and as of yet have found nothing fully answered or easily interpretable. For the benefit of myself and those others who have asked the question to little or no avail, PLEASE offer your insights on how to import a logo from Photoshop into FCP so that it has no white, black, or any kind, of background (i.e. that it exists on a transparent canvas in both Photoshop and FCP, so that when you place it on your timeline, superimposed over footage, you will not see that it appears set against a white rectangle or square, in the shape of the canvas on which the image appeared in Photoshop.)
Now, let's presuppose I'm an idiot -- which is, in truth, pretty accurate. I'm gonna need basic terminology. Tell me what buttons to push. What file type to export from Photoshop (I'm hoping you will say TARGA). And please, above all, try to avoid cryptic tech language such as "you must first decapulate the vector-field" and whatever...that stuff reads like hieroglyphics to me.
I am running FCP 4 and some recent version of Photoshop (I'm not at my computer at the moment but I'm not sure what tremendous difference the version number might make).
And of course, thanks in advance for an help and insight you might be able to offer.
Cheers

First, you really need to make sure your logo file actually AHS a transparent background. If is doesn't start a new Photoshop document WITH a transparent background and drag the contents from the original logo file to the new PS document. If a background os present, select it with one of the select tools (I use Color Range quite often for this) and delete it. Save the new PS document in a format that supports transparency such as TIF or PSD.
import the new PS document into FCP.

Is it possible to import an image w/ transparent background from photoshop?

Hello,
I was wondering if it's possible to import an image which contains a transparent part of it into Motion, so I can later add in images and videos underneath that layer.
Thanks for your time.

hi again,
there are two ways to do this. In Photoshop you can elect to have a transparent background, if you erase your image to show the chequered background, Motion will do the same.
Or from within Motion you can apply a mask to an image to have it show whats underneath. Apply the mask using the mask tools in the toolbar to the image, then step over to the Inspector, hit the mask tab and select the type as subtract. That will punch a hole in your image revealing whatever is underneath it.
thanks

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.

Thanks!

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.

How to import a logo from flat file to SAP in SMARTFORM.

how to import a logo from flat file to SAP in SMARTFORM. i need to know whether TIFF format is used and also the full steps.
Thanks,

Hi,
You can not directly use a logo from a file into a Smart form. First you will have to upload it to SAP. This has to be done only once. Once it is imported into SAP then you can use it in smart form. To import a logo to SAP, goto SE78. Open the tree under GRAPHICS. Select the file type and click on the Import (first button on the toolbar, just before delete button). Select the logo file and give it some appropriate name along with description. Select appropriate type of the image and click Continue. Your logo will be uploaded into SAP from a file. Now in your smartform, Create a Graphic Node, give the name of the logo along with other properties. In this way you can import a logo from a flat file into SAP and consequently in a smart form.

Receive message after importing serveral songs from CD into iTunes (latest ver 11.1.5.5)... "Error occurred while converting the file 'songname'. The required folder cannot be found." CD/DVD ROM is no longer recognized until restart.

Consistently receive the following message after importing serveral songs from CD into iTunes (latest ver 11.1.5.5)...
"Error occurred while converting the file 'songname'. The required folder cannot be found."
CD/DVD ROM is no longer recognized until computer is restarted.

I have the same problem. I recently moved my music from a Vista PC to a new Laptop with an external CD drive. It will copy one song from the CD and it will show in the Music file and then I get the message ' Error importing a CD - Folder not found'. I must unplug the CD drive and plug it back in. I have seen no fix for this problem.

Exporting links from Photoshop into a PDF (Rich Content PDF?)

Hi there,
I built my resume in Photoshop and typically I've been exporting to a PDF and then handling link creation within Adobe Acrobat itself. I'm wondering if there's a way to streamline this process such that links can be created within Photoshop and exported directly into the PDF file. This would save me the hassle of recreating links in Acrobat every time I modified the resume in Photoshop.
I've read about a Rich Content PDF extension/extra that is typically located in the Extras folder. I was able to successfully locate it and have Photoshop use it, but I don't know how to get links to actually be recognized by this plugin. My original hypothesis was to use slices (designating a region as a slice and then assigning it a link), but the Rich Content PDF export option did not recognize links through slices. Is there another way to do this or another way to create links in Photoshop such that it can be exported to a PDF (either through this plugin or otherwise)?
Thanks!

And what program would you recommend?
In addition, the resume is already created in the program I'm comfortable with - I'm certainly not opposed to picking up a new tool and learning how to use it, but my question specifically was simply asking if there was a way to export links from Photoshop into a PDF as that would be the most time-efficient.

Can I import my contacts from Gmail into Apple mail (Snow Leopard)?

That says Reset Documents and Data, not Contacts.
I want you to go to www.icloud.com, login and see how many contacts are there, because they are all the iCloud contacts. Any contacts that are not there, are not on iCloud.

How do I import individual frames from iMovie into iPhoto?

How do I import individual frames from iMovie into iPhoto? Or how do I export individual frames from iMovie into iPhoto? My final goal is to have a DVD of individual photos from a video I recently shot. Thanks

Here is one way to do it, although you will see there could be variations.
1) Open iMovie
2) Start a new project - name it Stills for iPhoto (or a name of your choice)
3) Go to your EVENT. Find the spot with the cursor that you want a photo of. Right-click (or control-click if you don't have a mouse) and select ADD STILL FRAME TO PROJECT.
4) The photo should be in the Project called Stills for iPhoto.
5) Right-click (control-click) on the photo and select REVEAL IN FINDER.
6)When the finder window opens, right-click and select COPY. Go to your Desktop or a folder of your choice and right-click PASTE
7) Drag the photo from your Desktop to iPhoto

Its possible import a After effect projects into Motion 5?

hi guys
its possible import a After effect projects into Motion 5?

No you can't do that. Unless AfterEffects can export some sort of XML, even then I doubt everything would be translated. One way is to export layers
you know won't change as movies and import them into Motion. Then just recreate the layers that you need to change.
