Strategy for Manual Chroma Key Setup.
1. Turn Selectivity to minimum
2. Set Clip Lo/Hi to “midrange values” (we recommend Clip Lo/Hi, but
it is also possible with Clip/Gain)
3.
Set primary suppression CHROMA to max.
4. Set Primary suppression LUM to min.
5.
Turn primary suppression HUE until the background (the key color)
becomes very noisily affected. Adjust for maximum.
6.
Increase the Selectivity until the background is completely keyed off
but foreground stays unaffected.
7. Adjust CHROMA and LUM (primary) so that the background color
and luminance appears as in the original.
8. Adjust Clip Lo/Hi. Adjust Clip Lo to make the foreground opacity and
adjust clip Hi to suppress noise/shadows in the background. To help
with this adjustment, turn on Show Key using the KEY PVW button.
9. If necessary, start tweaking as after and AUTO adjustment
