MEs and Keyers
resulting from incomplete suppression. While coring can improve some
keys, it can easily be over done. Coring thresholds much above black will
affect dark grays that are actually part of the foreground subject, making
the chroma key composite look unnatural.
Fringe
is used to restore color to the gray portions of the foreground color
resulting from secondary suppression adjustments. This control is only
active when secondary suppression is on.
Shdw
provides controls of shadows that fall on the backing.
Shadow Clip
and
Shadow Gain
allow selecting the range of the luminance portion of the fore-
ground that produces a shadow.
Shadow Density
is an opacity control for the
shadow and adjusts how much shadow is added to the background.
Background Mattes
Background matte generators create colors and washes. These can be used,
for example, as the backgrounds for keys.
Background mattes cannot use the wipe pattern generators available to
keyer and wipe mattes, and cannot use Utility video as a wipe source.
Instead background mattes employ a simple dedicated wipe generator that
creates a single, straight line.
Background matte control is available from the Control Panel (Multi-Func-
tion area,
Matt
button in the Home menu) and from the Keyer, Matte menu,
which provides additional background parameter controls.
1. Go to the Mattes menu by pressing
Keyer
,
Mattes
.
2. Touch the BKGD button.
3. If not already selected, touch the
Base Color
data pad of the desired
Background (1 or 2). Use the top three soft knobs to adjust
Base Hue
,
Base Saturation
, and
Base Brightness
of the base fill color ( Figure 26 ).
