Alpha Channel

You can add a clip with transparency information as an alpha channel (data area with transparency information) of
another clip. The effect makes the image to look like being masked, and you can overlay the image onto the image to
be the background.

(1) This is the image to be added with the alpha channel. It is called “Fill”.
(2) This is the image to be added to the “Fill” as the alpha channel. It is called “Key”.
You can apply the clip to be the “Key” like a mask as the alpha channel of “Fill”. Overlay the created clip to an image to
be the background to composite the clip.
