Removing a Still background video.
Hello pips,
Well I have to remove a prerecorded background from a talking head shot.
Here is the Talking head shot:
Here is the footage taken separately to be removed in Premiere.
I want to replace this background with something else while he is talking.
Basically I need to KEY out this background from the top picture.
I couldn’t find a way to do this simple thing.
not in Premiere Pro CS3 and not in the Boris continuum Complete plugins!Come on people there must be a way!

It is going to be impossible to key out that background. The colors in the foreground (head) and background colors are way too similar.
You could animate a mask in After Effects, but that would be extremely time consuming and the results would not be very clean.
Reshoot in front of a green screen. -
Hell no, it should be very simple.
I dont need to use chroma key in this case. since I have the background shot seperatly I do have the data to be removed..
its just that stupid Adobe didn’t embed such a simple action.
You have it in other NLEsAnyhow I’m going to use this proggie:
Serious Magic Ultra

It’s typically called difference keying, and it typically doesn’t work.
Good luck with it; personally, I’d plan for many hours of rotoscoping.-jeff

I’m not sure the original post is written correctly. It sounds like he has done a key previously, since he has the original background image. Perhaps you need to delete your key effect from the foreground clip?
Never know.
