Chroma Keying Not Working
I have some footage of a subject in front of a green screen. When I put it into Final Cut, apply the chroma keyer it will not key out the green screen. I have done this before, but I think the formats I am using won’t work with it or something. But when I change it to the format I used when it worked, it won’t work. Whats up? I really need to get this to work.

What format are you using?”Along with other useful details like your system and software setup. Really makes it hard for anyone to help with no idea of what you’re running.

Im on a 17inch MacBook Pro. Core Duo, 2GB of RAM. I’ve tried all kinds of formats. I would like to have it work with HDV though. So I’m using HDV 1080i 50 or 60.

If you have after effects, motion, or shake you should really do this in one of those programs. The keying tools in FCP are not the best. If you have motion it comes with Primatte RT and this is much better than the color keyer in FCP. Give it a try and see what happens.
