Method #2

In export settings, click Preset, then select More Presets. Here choose ‘GoPro Cineform RGB 12-bit with Alpha at Maximum Bit Depth’ and click OK.

Now the preset is applied. Therefore, do not change Format or Codec settings.

Transparent video or GIF animation exported through this method, will work on most video editing software such as Premiere Pro and Filmora - but it will not play on Windows Media Player unless you install QuickTime.

Method #3 - Export GIF

If you want to play a transparent video in most players including Windows PC, then in Presets list, select Animated GIF with Transparency. All other settings will be automatically selected. Export it and you are all done.

You can re-import the exported transparent video in Premiere Pro and use any background behind it.

Do not select MP4 format because it does not support alpha or transparency.
