Maybe you could use a viewport frame with a black background set up to only display the character. If you scale the GUI up to fit the entire players screen and use the same camera as the normal viewport I believe tweening the transparency can give you the desired effect. Not sure if this is a perfect solution though, just the first thing I could come up with.

Yeah agree I think it has to do with viewport frames

ViewportFrame Masking

After stumbling upon an interesting interaction that meshes with erased vertex alpha have in a ViewportFrame, I’ve been experimenting with them for a while now and want to share my discoveries. In this tutorial I’ll be sharing these discoveries and I’ll try to explain how all of it works to the best of my ability. What Are Meshes With Erased Alpha? First things first it’s good to know how you can erase vertices’ alpha. Erasing vertex alpha can be done for example in Blender by selecting “…
