    Hi,

    try to cut the key in half!
    Maybe you can only key the foot-shadow and key the rest like you would normaly, then join the 2 keyed images?!

    😉

    Not sure what you mean by cutting the key in half?!?!

    Have tried to create an additional mask around the feet, then duplicated the layer and played with the effects on both layers. However, had problems joining both keyed layers together – the blending between both layers does not look good.

    Am I going about this right? Any tips? Would be great if you could do a rough update of the AEP so I could see how this is best done.

    Many thanks.

    Easy,

    select both layers, press F (feather) set the value to… 10 oder 30 oder.. what ever looks good.
