i get a black halo even if i premultiply the footage on black. my robot in this render is set against a black background, with alpha, comped over the background. often its so subtle that you can get away with it, but in this case i have very prominent white highlights and the halo shows up. i have somewhat masked it with a post glow effect on this particular render but its still noticeable. any tips on how to avoid this?
