Steve,
>>Yes, this technique will produce a 32 bit image, this is only useful when
when using QT..<<
Yes, BUT, (for stills work) I can save a one frame QuickTime movie, open the
movie in simple player (or any other player app), copy the frame and paste it
into photoshop. The areas can be used to create an alpha channel, which can
then be used for compositing.
Also Cosa After Effects will use the alpha channel info. I can then composite
with other images and save as a pict file (for stills).
So, for me, this has enabled me to do what I need, so far…<g>

p.s. The new demo tape is awesome!! Just love Rod's Talking Head and the Balls
& Blocks (of the stuff that was from before is excellent too.)
How about a training tape for Rod's techniques and one for the interaction of
the Block and the Ball that trys to help it?
