Tremendously helpful! Thank you!

After you export with color + alpha in Apple Pro Res, you must import in final cut pro or any other editing software and change the composite mode of the clip to ADD under MODIFY. This will give you the transparency you are looking for.

even if you export using ProRes444 it still does not have a transparent background. after exporting once i bring the clip into premiere pro the clip still is not transparent. how do you just get the text to show up on the video without the black background?

APPLE MOTION 5 MUZZLE FLASH TUTORIAL ON MY CHANNEL!

Thank you dgtronic, that's very helpful!
I'm still getting the black background when I export. My hope was to get transparent text motion for use in boinx tv, but the black video covers up my main image. Do you have to key the black out in a post production program, or did I miss something? Any help would be great and thanks for the vid!!
