  • focus pull on greenscreen = HELP!!

    Posted by Markus Etter on October 16, 2008 at 1:03 pm

    Hi

    I am about to key some greenscreen shots of a recent shoot I had.
    We shot on HDCAM 1080p and in general the green screen keys perfectly with primatte keyer 4.

    but…

    we had to shoot with the aperture wide open and the greenscreen is behind a window frame, resulting in having out of focus edges on the screen in some of the shots. At one point the dp even did a focus pull between actor and window frame. It is hard enough to key blurry shots, but to key out of focus shots WITH focus pull seems to be virtually inmpossible!!!

    Does anyone have experience in this and could help me out? The tricky shots dont sum up to really much. No more than 80-100 frames in total, but they look absolutely horrendous comapred to the nicely keyed rest!

    Any help is very much apretiated

    Markus
