Keyable graphics question?

Make a black layer that is R=0, G=0, B=0

Make sure you are not color managing
In Photoshop choose Photoshop > Color Settings. (shift-command K)
do: settings color management off.

That should be it. Just make sure there is significant difference between that black and any other blacks/dark colors in your animation.

And test, test, test!

debe,
hey thanks so much. I will do much testing. 🙂 Thank goodness I do not need them until next weekend. Again, thanks for all of the help.

Debe,
The FCP “Units” were something Graeme Nattress wrote about in his color sampling article on kenstone.net, I believe.

Thanks, Kevin!!

I was so sure I just read it recently. When I couldn’t find it again, I was truly hoping it wasn’t something I had literally dreamed up and I was remembering my dream!
