Thank you so much. Watching tutorials is cool but I seem to grasp it better while reading it. So having a step by step that applies to what I am trying to do is great! Ok, so going to take a deep breath and follow your instructions. I think that also, not knowing how to work the filters and the adding of them, I was maybe over simplifying things.

Thank you for your time and advice. It was MUCH needed.

Thank you both. I will try both options and definitely look for tutorials. I want to learn all I can possibly learn so this goes faster for me.

Thanks so much for your time and useful information.

Have a feeling I am way out of my league here.

Posted a picture of the original blue screen footage. A light red/magenta line runs across the brim and top of the hat. Second picture is of the footage keyed with no color changes in front of the type of background he wants.

Having never worked with blue/green screen footage before most of what you said was over my head. I am a photoshop girl and although I have worked in final cut I have always worked with video shot live.
Having been given a project and the final cut manuals I am fumbling my way through this.

I have combed the web and watched many tutorials..time is running out though. I don’t want to tie anyone up by having to have them baby step me through this. Is there another tutorial I should watch starting with bringing in raw blue screen footage up to keying it? Perhaps one that covers spill killers and making sure it is broadcast safe(since I again had no clue).

Thank you for ANY direction at this point,
Heather
