    [Mike Schrengohst] “Does FCP have a decent keyer or will I need to stick with AE for keying?”

    Boris Continuum Filters are what I’m using for an HD series here. Excellent keyer with good choker and clean up mattes as well.

    FCP is excellent for editing all flavors of HD.

    Mike,

    We’ve been using the Ultimatte “AdvantEdge”. It’s a rather expensive plug in for FCP, but it generates absolutely awesome “one click” keys. Worst case scenarios like thin frizzy hair cut through cleanly and precisely.

    However, render times for HD will be long. For that matter, render times for any of these keying filters will be long in true HD space.

    I’ll second Boris Continuum – HDCam keys are not as easy as you might think, but I haven’t had any problems when using it
