Depends on what you mean or want to achieve.

Background is a void and shows a black.

I did not mean the usal black background of Adobe , bust a videoclip which has a black background. Color key effect works on any clor , except black .

Hey Ruud Scheidel,

 

You can do so by clicking on the wrench icon in the Program Monitor and selecting Transparency Grid. I have attached screenshots for a better explanation.

 

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks,

Ishan

Transparency grid shows up grey (not in function) and not black . Moreover only the black background of the clip must be transparant , not the other coloured objects in the clip.
