Re: animations with alpha in Director
by William McGrath on Jul 22, 2008 at 4:54:33 pm

Or a variation of number 5 which would remove the QuickTime issues (direct to stage, jerky playback if the compression is not done right and so on):

In Director, make your animation on the timeline with your 3D plus background. Then export the frames as new 24-bit images (no need for an alpha channel from this point on). Use these new images either for looping with lingo or for a timeline-based animation.

You could, of course, use a video app for the animation and then export as numbered bitmaps rather than a QT movie. (Export in Director can sometimes be iffy.)
