I need to place the stars falling on another clip.

Since the stars are with a black background, it actually darkens the below layer video.

Is there a way to just take off the black background of the stars (is it alpha? not sure) so that my other clip is still bright and clear with only the stars falling on.

stars.mpeg can be downloaded at http://www.maximixx.com/stars.mpeg

Thanks alot guys

Under keying in video effects is an effect called 'Luma Key'. Place this on the stars clip and the black will be gone...
