Composing Video With Keys
Composing Video With Keys
A key is an effect in which color and shape information is used to cut out part
of the background video and replace it with another color or other video. The
signal determining how the background is cut out is termed the “key source,”
and the signal that replaces the cut-out part is termed the “key fill.”
This system supports the following types of keys.
Luminance key/linear key:
Used to insert titles and logos into the video. The
key source often shows black and white text, which is detected by using the
luminance (Y) signal.
Chroma key:
Used to compose scenes with two different components, for
example people and a background. A key signal based on a particular color
is used to cut out the background.
Pattern key:
Video is composed using various patterns. A special pattern is
used as the key source.
