7. DARK
- Dark adjusts the shadow area of the subject, the higher the value the more shadow detail.
8. DARK DENSITY
- Dark Density adjusts the intensity of the shadow area, the higher the value the darker
the shadow area.
9. BRIGHT
- Bright fine tunes the appearance of semi transparent items such as a glass of water, or items
with a light edge. The higher the value the more defined the edge becomes.
10. SPILL
- Spill adjusts the colour balance of the subject. Often the background colour can spill onto the
subject causing a green or blue cast. Adjust the spill to get a good skintone.
11. SPILL BRIGHTNESS
- Spill Brightness fine tunes the spill adjustment.
12. SHRINK LEFT
- Shrink Left can remove any unwanted edge from the left of the subject. Use just enough
to give a clean edge.
13. SHRINK RIGHT
- Shrink Right can remove any unwanted edge from the right of the subject. Use just
enough to give a clean edge.
Window adjustments 14 - 17 allow you to dispose on non-keyable areas from a shot. There are times when
your backcloth is not big enough to give you the shot your after, (see our somewhat extreme example below)
so cropping with the window controls is the solution. Some of you may know the setting as garbage matte.
14. WINDOW X LEFT
- Adjusts the cropping to the left of the screen.
15. WINDOW X RIGHT
- Adjusts the cropping to the right of the screen.
16. WINDOW Y TOP
- Adjusts the cropping from the top of the screen.
17. WINDOW Y BOTTOM
- Adjusts the cropping from the bottom of the screen.

Once all the garbage has been cropped out you can set up the chroma key effect as normal.
