Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Avid effects quandry

For the push, you'll probably need a matte key layer so the background
doesn't move with it. Try doing your push with one of the BCC transition
effects (I'm not in front of an Avid and I don't remember which one to use
off the top of my head), then dupe that transition onto the next video
track, turn on the effect's alpha only output, then add a matte key effect.
