Spill Method
This selects the strength of the algorithm used to apply spill suppression to the image.
None: None is selected when no spill suppression is required.
Rare: This removes very little of the spill color and is the lightest of all methods.
Medium: This works best for green screens.
Well Done: This works best for blue screens.
Burnt: This works best for blue screens. Use this mode only for very troublesome shots.
Spill Suppression
When this slider is set to 0, no spill suppression is applied to the image. Increasing the slider
increases the strength of the spill method.
Fringe Gamma
This control can be used to adjust the brightness of the fringe or halo that surrounds the
keyed image.
Fringe Size
This expands and contracts the size of the fringe or halo surrounding the keyed image.
Fringe Shape
Fringe Shape presses the fringe toward the external edge of the image or pulls it toward the
inner edge of the fringe. Its effect is most noticeable while the Fringe Size value is large.
Cyan/Red, Magenta/Green, and Yellow/Blue
Use these three controls to color correct the fringe of the image.
This is useful for correcting semitransparent pixels that still contain color from the original
background to match the new background.
Tuning Tab
The Tuning tab is an advanced tab that allows you to determine the size of the shadow,
midtone, and highlight ranges. By modifying the ranges, you can select the strength of the
matte and spill suppression based on tonal values.
