    Hi,

    You will always loose a bit of resolution.

    the reason? Because when you stabilize footage you move it around, by doing that you “expose” the edge of the footage. the only way to hide that, is to scale up your footage.

    Now the visible image quality degration will depend on how much stabilizing is happening, since that will dictate how much you need to scale your footage up.

    Looks to me like they used tracking points to link the movement of the objects with the actors hands.

    Do you have a link to a sample of what you are talking about?

    Thanks,

    To save a little time with SOME of the cloning you can scale up the foreground element aswell to cover more background, if it works in that particular pic.

    Go to this website:

    https://www.rosco.com/uk/scenic/ultimatte.asp#SPECIFICATIONS

    There is an email address at the bottom, I use there Ultimatte Green screen video paint since I shoot HDV.

    I’m sure they can tell you what the right blue product is for film?

    Well yeah, a 3-CCD camera will help a LITTLE since the colors are more saturated, but there are lots of factors to consider, color space being the biggest I guess and DV can only handle so much. But I think DV can take you reasonably far.

    Please post us a still grab of your footage with green screen, and how do you light when using green screen?

    Yeah, in the comp timeline there is a button right next the the shy button, that does continuous rasterize. Enable that.

    Not true at all. Color correction can be keyframed, but it applies itself to the whole clip by default.

    If you’ve got AE Pro you will have a gazillion ways to make changes. There is Color Finesse, there is levels, curves, etc…

    Premiere Pro 2 has an awesome three-way color corrector, and the handy Fast Color Corrector. And a host of new features to help with CC.

    You can do secondary color correction, etc… The list goes on.

    Read the manual of AE and if you have PP, that too. It will teach you all about white balance, broadcast save colors, etc…

    ALSO go into AE 7.0 and under effects you will see a folder called Color Correction. Play with those effects so that you can see what they do.
