Compositing

Use the output controls to decide whether Ditheron stays part of the shot or becomes a separate graphic layer.

DaVinci Resolve

For a tracking-style layer, choose Reactive Modern > Structure: GUI > Blob Look: Blob Track. Background: Original keeps the source image. Background: Black replaces its RGB with black while retaining source alpha. Background: Transparent outputs tracked-effect coverage only.

Put the active element over a clip with Wet and Dry, or use Extract Active Alpha when the selected mode exposes it.

After Effects

Use Wet and Dry to keep a graphic treatment tied to the footage. Use an active-element plate when the comp needs the treatment on a separate layer. The available alpha controls depend on the selected host and mode.

Final Cut Pro

Use Wet and Dry for an integrated look. Use a host-visible active-element output when the edit needs a separate treatment layer.

Build a graphic layer

1. Choose GUI > Blob Track when the tracking-style treatment is the layer.

2. Set Background to Original, Black, or Transparent for the intended composite.

3. Use Wet and Dry for an integrated mix, or use Extract Active Alpha when available for a plate.

4. Place the result over the footage and tune the blend in the timeline.

Signal and Order do not expose Extract Active Alpha. Keep those modes integrated with Wet and Dry.
