Hi Mark,
EVS doesn't have any support for alpha channels directly. What you have
to do is put in the alpha as a separate black and white stream. The EVS
op can then sync the two up and play them out using two outputs. It
doesn't matter whether you send the clips over as baseband or files. If
the the EVS is off-site somewhere rather than at the end of a cable then
your best bet is probably to send a QuickTime or OP-1a MXF (assuming
they have an X-File or something around), but you might need to match
the codec that they are using as they may not be able to transcode. You
can probably also send them a tape - there's usually a VTR or two around.
