Opacity
The opacity control is a slider bar on the Effects Panel. Opacity controls how much you
can see through the media. As an object becomes less opaque, it becomes more
transparent
Note: If you want to turn off the media altogether, do not set opacity to zero since
this still uses CPU cycles. Instead, you should turn off the visibility of the source.
Matte
A matte is an image that is used to define the opacity of another piece of media.
Wirecast comes with several mattes, which are listed in the Matte drop-down menu.
