Chroma Key of 'Super Lotto-Rama'

[TravisT]

Here's a screen shot from this first editted sequence of 'Super Lotto-Rama.' I shot this with a blue screen and whipped up the graphics in photoshop. Even though I had two rim lights with amber gels on either side of my actress there was still a bit of a blue aura around her. I was going to have a cityscape background but this blue background masks the blue spill well. This is actually going to be shot again being played through a TV while someone watches (yeah, synchro-scan!).

which NLE are you using?

 

[TravisT]

Avid Express DV. There are six layers of video in this frame. I tried to animate the graphics as best I could to mimic a news broadcast with what Avid has to offer. It was a pain to render.

Probably half the number of layers in the talent's makeup.

Sorry, couldn't resist. The key looks really solid though, and lighting is very TVNews-esque
