RE: [BULK] - Chroma Keying HDV footage

["Hickey, Sean" <Sean_Hickey(at)wpbt.org>]

I bought a Sony Fx1 HDV camera and am very happy with the results.   I have shot on Beta and Digibeta and find it looks pretty damn good.  As far as green screen interviews I would take the extra time to really separate the subject from the background with good lighting.  I use DS at work but until I become the next Tone I am using  Avid Dv at home.  There is less flexibility as far as spill mattes etc. but it keyed out fine.  You might want to use AfterEffects to help with the edges

Hope this helps

Has anyone tried to chroma key HDV footage? How does it look?
