Welcome
Thank you for purchasing Blackmagic Ultimatte.
Ultimatte has been the premiere keyer used in the film and television industries for
decades and no other keyer comes close to the performance that Ultimatte can achieve.
It’s powerful enough to handle fine detail on key edges as well as retaining stronger colors,
even when those foreground colors are close to the key color. Even uneven green and
blue screen backdrops can be handled.
However, what makes Ultimatte so powerful is its ability to map shadows onto the new
background layer combined with its color spill management that lets you create extremely
realistic environments. In many ways, Ultimatte is much more than a keyer as it’s really a
real time advanced compositor for creating photorealistic virtual environments. Ultimatte
lets you move your talent to any location at the click of a button and the results look real.
This instruction manual contains all the information you need to get started with Ultimatte
as well as detailed instructions on how to operate Ultimatte using Blackmagic Ultimatte
