  • Keylight on mulitple layers

    Hello,

    I have a comp with 134 layers of Full HD footage.

    Each layer is an interview done a green screen.

    I can key each one out easily enough using ‘KeyLight’, but it’s going to take awhile.

    I’ve tried keying the first layer, then simply copying the effect to the remaining layers – but there are a few glitches. (Half the screen disappears etc..).

    I’ve also tried precomping them, and applying one ‘keylight’ to all 134 layers, it does remove each green screen, but it just turns it white, instead of making it a transparent layer.

    Is there any other way of adding keylight to 134 layers, then tweaking the ones that are out?

    Cheers,
    Henry

    Instead of copying and pasting, save your settings as a custom effect.
