Hey Skeetshooter To start with, try this test. load a figure into Poser and then select "render settings" under the Render menu. On the right side you'll see the option "render over" - set this option to "Black" Now do a render. Export the image in .png format and load it into your main art program (ie: Photoshop). You should see right away that the figure appears on a transparent background. You can render out a sequence of images this way and then load them into Final Cut Pro for video editing (check your manual for loading in a sequence of images with pre-multiplied Alpha) You can do the same with video but you'll need to select uncompressed video or a lossless codec with RGA+Alpha. I prefer using a lossless codec over uncompressed so as to keep the file sizes manageable. later joe
