I want to create an animation that is the product of compositing three sets of 480 sequentially numbered full color TGAs with Alpha channel information created by 3D Studio. These are ultimately to be a Cinepak Quick Time movie. How do I do it? – Video Post will only composite one frame at time. It won't read sequentially numbered TGAs for compositing. – Premiere on the Mac will do it but the alpha channel data in the 3DS files isn't being read correctly, even when the files are written by 3DS as TIFFs. Is there a known work around for this? – Is there a third party program (PC, Mac or SGI) that can do batch mode alpha channel compositing? Thanks in advance for your help. A beautiful sunrise over a exotic looking planet depends on it. Bill Niemeyer
