Track Motion, Multiply Mask showing a box around image

MUTTLEY wrote on 6/9/2003, 8:05 PM

Essentially I have a fly flying over a logo. I'm using track motion to animate the fly moving about. The fly is black on a white background and I'm composting the track with "Multiply" so you can only see the fly and not the surrounding white box as it moves over the logo. All is good except there is a black box border outlining the fly, in other words a black line around the image as the track is zoomed out to make the fly smaller. So I need the box not to show, any thoughts ?

If ya missed any of that and I need to clarify lemme know, rereading it I'm almost confused. =P

use chromakey instead or mask. If i understood correctly that will solve the problem

If it's an 8-bit per pixel image file, convert it to a 24-bit per pixel format. There was a bug (might have been fixed already?) having to do with edges appearing on 8-bpp image files with track motion.
