In tutorials backgrounds are black. In AE my background is a checker pattern (indicating transparency). How do people get the black background you see in tuts?

 

Thanks,

Rusty

You need to deactive the transparency grid. Use the Toggle Transparency Grid button in the bottom of the Composition panel. Check attached image.
