Chroma Keying or Green Screen

This is a really awesome feature that professionals use all the time. Using Green Screen, you can change the background of your scene to make the figures you capture fly or appear anywhere you can imagine – just by changing the background image. But first, you’ll need to find something solid green or blue as background for your master shot. Try a green bed sheet or towel. Also make sure you have enough light. Place your figures in front of the green background.

Enable “Chroma Key” in the project properties chroma-key panel. The green portion on the screen should now be showing the picture you selected with the figure(s) you are shooting in front of it. If you can still see parts of the green background showing through, try to adjust the sensitivity slider a little bit until your background picture appears clearly with no artifacts.

Use the background control to change the background picture or select ‘Import’ to import your own background image.
