Morpheus Software Support Forums

hi,

i'm trying to create a cartoon animation with an animated character walking (i.e. morphing) over an animated background. i have the seperate animations, now i want to combine them.

what is the best way to do this? how can i use a transparency color? and will the Industrial version let me combine whole videos for this effect?

thanks!!

You want to combine them how? End to end? On top of eachother?

on top of each other. like blue-screening in movies.

e.g. i have a man walking on a blank page.

I make the blank page blue, let's say, and make it transparent.

I then want to overlay this on an animated forest of trees/background to fill in the blank space.

That isn't really a function of Morpheus, you would do that outside of Morpheus in any video editing package like Windows Movie Maker or Adobe Premiere perhaps. You can create morphs with transparency depending on the options you set and file types you render to if you need more than a basic chroma-key for morphs. Those features require the Professional edition or higher.

okay cool. thanks for the response!

so, how would i save my morph with only the pure whitespace as transparent?

that should solve it.

Part of transparency depends on the pictures you load and if they have transparency, as well as the file format you are rendering to. You can read more at http://www.morpheussoftware.net/morpheu ... ne-options
