I created a lower third with a alpha channel in Photoshop and saved it as a
.targa file. In vt5 brought it in - (using it as a lower third background-put words over it) first 2 times was perfect - then everytime after that, where it was transparent, it was "black" and moving....like it just decided it wasnt going to keep its transparency anymore. I know this is a basic question,but I have tried a number of methods. what is the way to make a "gradient" or "see through" third in PS, and then have it work in VT5 (from the CG designer)?? We are a church and we run sermon notes through the CG during the sermon. I am sure that it is some simple step that I am missing ...
Any help would be great.
ThankYou

Photoshop can be stupid about Targa's, easy to get it wrong. Try exporting a PNG instead. (Personally, I'd just us Aura on the VT system for this stuff.)
