Wow! Thanks everyone for all of your support. It’s truely humbling to get such good feedback so quickly. Well, the verdict is out for now. I have keep trying ideas until something works “good enough” for what I have to work with. Or the other option is to hire someone out. Either way, my determination might be blind but I am counting on something working out. It just has to.
I’ll be sure to keep you guys posted on anything that ends up working out. Thanks again comrades!

Thanks guys for the info and your compassion.. dually noted. The keyer you mentioned… have you compared it to DVMATTE PRO or any others? and why do you think it is better? I am trying to keep a strict budget on this but if it works from your trials vs others, then it may be worth the try. You can see that if I bought every keyer out there, I would be looking in dumpsters for a meal afterwards. Thanks..

Hey, another question: Should I de-interlace my footage before keying. Should I render it de-interlaced out of FCP or de-interlace when captured in Combustion or Shake? Actually, if de-interlacing is the way to go then what do I do with the export? Depending on the export of the footage whether it be back into the FCP timeline or compressed to mpeg2 from another program, does it come out interlaced in the end anyway? It just seems like everyone is saying to deinterlace before keying and I don’t see what the difference is in the long run?

ok, the lighting was fairly good for keying and the separation was good. If I don’t get anyone here to perhaps offer some unique solutions for a fix, can you guys tell me Who or What type of freelancer I should be seeking in order to get what I need? thanks

You guys have some really good ideas but regarding hiring out.. what is someone going to be doing any differently other than rotoscoping? I think that I can learn from people’s successes here with this particular issue at hand.

That at least sounds somewhat enlightning. However, I do not own After Effects for my mac. I do have it for my Premiere Pro System. I would hate to have to turn on Premiere Pro and go through all of that hoopla. Thanks for the info. What file format should I export from FCP the de-artifact filtering? Should it be uncompressed quicktime or uncompressed 8bit or ???
