EXPORT TRANSPARENT Background VIDEOS in Premiere Pro CC | Alpha Channel Tutorial
In this video I show you how to export a video with an alpha channel to create a video with a transparent background. This is useful when creating titles, graphics, lower thirds, animations or keyed video assets that you tend to use over and over in your videos, like for branding purposes. By exporting with a transparent background, you can now just import those files like any others and easily place them over your footage in any/all projects. I will also show you the settings on exporting a transparent video in Adobe Premiere Pro, including 2 different export presets that you can use as well. Timestamps are below:
