  keying out a white background

  Posted by Zac on March 20, 2006 at 12:48 pm

  what is the best way to key out a white background? Someone shot a person in front of a white sheet of paper. It is well lit, I am just asking before i dive in if there is a better or proven method of doing this.

  I like the extract filter for this because it makes it easy to access the ‘softness’. But Luma key will do also.
