    I have since sorted the problem by yes using three separate layers where you use a base layer, core layer then a separate layer for sorting out the edge problem. Also Dave LaRonde mentioned using a technique where you use a matte of the key that also helped.

    The line does indeed appear where the back light is shining on the talent hence the initial responses from kind people saying it was the detail setting in the camera. The only reason I’m chasing it up is because I’ve got another green screen shoot on the way soon and as much as I got the problem sorted its way more efficient to get these things ironed out in camera before the post process takes place. I will go back to the original footage later today and send a grab of the footage.

    Thanks for your help!

    I forgot to ask what Picture profile you were using. To keep my cameras as close as possible I have them all set to Doug Jensen’s Profile Doug 1. If you do not have his tutorial on the Ex-1r it would be a good investment.

    I hope by now you have it narrowed down on what is causing your problem with green screen.

    Good Luck

    I looked and whats more confusing was that the Picture Profile setting was set to off so no additional detail/Sharpening must of been used.
