GIF transparency

  • I've been having trouble with incorporating GIFs in my animation. The GIF appears sheer so I can't layer the images as intended. Is it something that can be solved through the exporting settings ( I'm building the GIFs in Photoshop ) or is it a consequence of the multiply setting on Videoscribe.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks!

  • Open the properties menu for that gif, then change the blend effect from multiply to something else.

  • Thanks for your answer Mike, but then the background for the GIF is white, so I cannot layer the drawings

  • Oh yes that is true.

    Depending on what you want to accomplish, you could:
    1) have the ships sailing across a white background and not overlapping
    2) make one complex gif (including several ships and a background image) instead of layering multiple gifs over a static image.
    3) use "move-in" to move a png image of several ships across the screen
    4) some other option
