You are doing something much bigger than you know_ you are blindly empowering knowledge to anybody who will take it. The powerful will fear you, the rest will honor and respect you. I am gonna sit at my computer and .. do some more .. stuff. .. so.. GOD LUCK!

Excellent tutorial. I refer back to this every once in a while when I can't seem to get a decent key.

hi Andrew.
can you do me a thing.
i was just wondering and trying about keylight. and i what i can't do is using keylight on anime videos. i mean they don't got green screen background. can you show or tell me how to do it?
i tried and tired. otherwise i have to go with the old way. by masking :(

ps.i tired color keying to.
and YOU ROCK. keep the good job
Sweden

Yeah, great tut! I was fiddling around with the screen gain and got unwanted results, such as strange artifacts and lots of noise...a friend of mine recommended this tutorial.... and i love it..got my keying right this time:)!

tnx

This is a amazing tutorial, but i have a problem whit my chroma, i m using a panasonic 100b, and the video had some grain problem when i start to apply the keylight... the origin video look great, but when i use the clip black everythings #%&!!!! what is the problem here?

please help,
and excuse me for my english. I hope you understand

hi, thanks for to this great tutorial, ? have a question, which camera model prefer to use on chromakey (interlace or progressive, hdv or dv) sorry for bad english :)

Thank you!

OH MY GOD

Great tutorial, and find in most situations I tried it with it does a great job, however I too like some others would love to see an advanced Chroma Key tutorial for those much more difficult situations such as badly lit green screens that are harder to extract or objects that reflect some of the chroma key and detailed objects like hair and shadows. How would you go about this? Using a Matte technique maybe? This is where I need to call on your expertise as mine fails.....keep up the great work

great job again andrew nice tutorial thanks

Keylight does come with After Effects 7, go uner Keying. Nice tutorials here. Helped me a lot!

This tutorial has change my life.... it's seriously

FIVE STARS!

woww (omg)... nice tutorial andrew..

thx =)

I used this tutorial to make my first movie! I used Colbert's footage of John McCain and put him in the last supper! It looks pretty bad, but I know I'll get better eventually.

Thanks Video Copilot!

Andrew - You're a very talented individual. Thank you very much for making your extensive knowledge available to those who need to utilize it. Learning ANY new software can be challenging, and appreciate very much all of your hard work. YOUR TUTS ROCK!!! Keep up the excellent work.
BTW - It seems like you have worked on feature motion pictures before -- have you?

wicked cool tutorials!!!! im an animation student in the phils. and these really help me a lot! keep it up Andrew!

where is the blown away tutorial?

WOW these guys are great !
How can i get this plugin!
:]

This guy is great.
How can i who live's in Germany buy his DVD?

Hey Andrew,

And again a great tutorial! Keep it up.
Sam keep it up to :D

Bas

I bought this DVD, but i can't find this Keylight plugin.Where can I get it?

If i'm not mistake, beside than keying light, we're also can using the other keying features- this is because all of them have very similar functions- it's up to you, the way you manipulate the features-depend on your creativity-

gracias por tanta luz, maestro!!, mucha claridad para explicar, muchas gracias

Hey, these are cool!!!!!

Nice specially the coler matching,,

thx

wow~good!!!!!

great tutorial andrew...
Guys, keylight is a very powerful keying tool but you have to purchase it. But let us not just depend om it. The color key is also a powerful plug in.

good :)

For those that are complaining about not having Keylight.

Keylight is included with After Effects versions 6.0, 6.5, 7 & CS3. It is on the "extras" or "3rd party plugins" disk. It does not auto install, you have to install it yourself.

If you got your copy AE from a file sharing network the extra stuff was probably not included.

If you bought AE & the plugin isn't on any of the discs that Adobe sent, give customer support a call.

search on google for keylight

THANK YOU!!!!

Thank you for this awesome tutorial! But could you put up the footage so we can test it out (just in case somebody doesn't have the best quality camera).

Thanks!

Sam is just great, agian!

for those of you that cant find keylight, you can download it at:

Hi,

just great! I like this tutorial. Thank you.

Andy Sander

http://www.playcon.de

is there a website where i can find background videos for green screen


-thank you

Keylight comes with AE 6.5 Pro and above, however it does not come pre-installed with AE. It has its own, separate installation. That means that if you install AE without installing Keylight, you won't find it when you click Effect-Keying.

If you want to install keylight, put in the AE installation disc, and when the autoplay comes up, click the option to install keylight (it works this way with 6.5). If you can't find it, then try browsing the contents of the disc directly. If you still can't find it, its likely that you don't have a Pro version. If you know you have a Pro version, or if you have CS3, and still can't find it, you just haven't looked hard enough.

andrew is very very helpful and is a good explainer!

where is the Project...

where did you get the explosion???

A very useful tutorial for all of us who use keylight. However, it could be interesting a new tutorial called 'advanced color keying' which would analize more complex projects. In example tips for affronting long hair (specially curl long hair) or blurred parts of the body when it's moving.

here is a link http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/pkg_release_notes.aspx?ui=A5FB8E97-D752-4E01-AC7D-17B39B7E1192

I also have the shaky edge problem. I think it's keyed out perfectly then when I play the video back their edges have a strobe effect.. like characters from dr katz.

Any help?

keep it up man

( I´m Spanish) A fantastic tutorial Andrew, I am learning very much with you.

I wait to manage to be like your Andrew

A greeting... Marc
