Since we are working with Flash after this we want to set our Format to FLV.Г‚ Now that weвЂ™re done with that we want to hit the OK button.

Now that you are in the Render Queue locate Output Module, and click on the yellow text next to it to bring up the Output Module Settings.Г‚ Go to Video Output and make sure that under Channels, RGB+Alpha is selected and that you Depth is Millions of Colors+.Г‚ Those two settings are key to making sure you get a transparent movie.

Once your movie is created you will want to render it so that you can use it in Flash.Г‚ To render your video go to Composition -> Add to Render Queue.Next just go crazy in After Effects and create your movie.Г‚ For this example I just put two different text elements onto the composition and gave them both a little big of animation.Г‚ After Effects allows you to import assets, so if you create a very nice background of image in Photoshop that was you want to use, just go to File -> Import -> FileвЂ¦ and bring in anything you want to use.

To Start we open up After Effects and create a new Composition.Г‚ To ensure that we have no background layer toggle the Transparency Grid so that you get a вЂњwaffle backgroundвЂќ which will look the same as when you are working with a transparent background in Photoshop.This tutorial is based on need.Г‚ I needed this info earlier today, and I had to sort through about a half dozen sites to find all of this information.Г‚ The scenario is as follows:Г‚ I was tasked with creating an animated movie that has a layer of transparency.Г‚ My client did not know what color they were going to use as their background for the site, but they wanted an animated movie to transition into showing their logo.Г‚ Knowing this was my task I then posed two questions How do I get a movie to render with an alpha layer in After Effects?Г‚ Also, can that transparent movie be put into Flash and published in Flash all the while maintaining the transparency?
