Applying Effects After Using a  Color Key to Remove Greenscreen

I want to apply an infrared effect to a character on some greenscreen footage after using keylight to remove the greenscreen. When I apply the effect, it of course effects the color key, making all the removed greenscreen come back. I'm sure there must be a way to keep the screen matte data, before the effect is added, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do this.

Some effects will overwrite the Alpha channel. In that case the procedures you choose are correct, if you want to keep the layer count low. Still, you may wish to check the layer's internal blendmode controls just to make sure. For effects like Colorama, you can also explicitly disable Alpha processing, so the source transparency remains intact. You could of course also use the Alpha Matte or Stencil Alpha modes to do the cutout using duplicates of the source layer.

  • My keyboard freezes after using the option key... what gives?

    I have a 17" MacBookPro with OSX 10.6.8
    The problem:   My keyboard key freeze after using the " option key"  in Photoshop or  when downloading a file using the option key.
    I can usually use it 2 or 3 times before it makes a chirping cricket like sound… then my keys freeze up.? The only way to correct it is to restart.
    Anyone else have or had this issue?   it's frustrating.  What's the deal?

    Can I just bring my laptop to the nearest service center and get this problem solved directly? You know, usually it will takes several days to receive the backup keyborad, I can't wait
    You'll have to phone the service center and ask. (When I lived not far from Lenovo's Canadian service center and wanted to bring in a ThinkPad for warranty repair they said that would be OK with them but my unit would be put on a queue the same as if I'd shipped it in. They simply didn't offer walk-in, while you wait service.)
    In the interim it may or may not be possible to reattach the key, even just temporarily, depending on whether it wasn't put on properly at the factory or if it's physically broken in some way. Or you could use an external keyboard until Lenovo sends you a replacement, etc.
    I've just call the local service center, he told me that he can not repair individual key, they can just replace the whole keyboard..... How bad luck I am!!!

  • Overhead calculation not happening after using Overhead key and orgin group

    overhead calculation not happening after using Overhead key and orgin group.
    There was a runtime error earlier related to u201Cdefine credit u201C IMG node under costing sheet component and we have applied SAP note 769946 and that error was gone out of the way
    We want to apply/add Overhead to SFG/FG materials.
    We are using PP order with PCC(product cost collector) as the cost object , i.e costing by period.(system ECC 6)
    But our problem is with material standard cost estimate process.
    We have assigned overhead keys to the percentage rates in costing sheet for material standard costing and assigned the origin groups to the credits of costing sheet. But after running the cost estimate overhead is not taking into account for standard cost calculation.
    In the define credit entry table key field is valid to date strangly and actually system should allow one than one entry with same valid to date and same sec.Cost element(type-41) for different cost centers.
    But if we without using overhead key and origin group, the entire cost in that supporting cost center will come to all materials (SFG/FG) and we can not distinguish between different product materials(SFG /FG).
    We have checked all things as mentined below.
    Firstly that the correct costing sheet is assigned to the valuation
    variant.
    That the costing sheet is entered for the appropriate material type:
    Finished and semi finished or material components.
    All of the above can be checked and verified via transaction OKKN.
    In addition make sure that the base value maintained is present in the
    costing, for example the base may include an Origin group, is that
    origin group part of the materials being costed?
    Similarly if the base is found and values exist how is the overhead
    rate of the costing sheet set up, is it valid etc.
    And finally do a similar check for the credit.
    we doubt this as a programm error...
    So, request all experts to have ur feedback..

    Dear,
    Check your origin group & material unit of mesaurement is same.
    some time in costing sheet origin group is maintain in different unit & for materail it's maitain in other unit of mesaurement.
    You can see unit of measure for material in Additional data - unit of measure.
    Check BOM component material unit also.
    Check same  unit of measure is maintain in KZS2
    I hope above will useful.

  • How do you use the color channel output mode in Ultra Key in Premiere Pro CS6?

    I'm wondering how the color channel output mode is supposed to be used in the Ultra Key inside of Premiere Pro CS6? I've looked through all the Adobe help items and I don't see any documentation on it.

    Before I answer, you might want to read the following article: http://www.photoshopessentials.com/essentials/rgb/
    So, basically, if you understood all of that, and maybe already knew all of that, then you can use the color channel to see more deeply into the effect by looking at the details of the image through the lens of the color channel.

  • After applying effects random green frames appear

    When applying effects, for some reason 1-2 seconds after the effect plays there are green frames in the video. This also has happened when I used the option to slow down the video speed. Its happened to me on all projects that I have used effects on and I don't know what to do.

    Do you have two video cards? There's a KB article about green frames occuring on export if you have two video cards.
    Are you editing original media or optimized? You might try using optimized media as maybe the encoder is having problems with the h.264 codec.
    Also try clearing out all render files from both the event and project and have it re-render everything.

  • Color Key in Effects Keys

    I have a clip in which the color of a red jersey still appears to be illegal. I don't want to desaturate the color of the entire frame by using 3 color correction - just the red jersey. I have broadcast safe filters on but have been told that filter is not super reliable. Does anyone know a way in which I could selectively tone down the red jersey only? Someone suggested using one of the plugs in Effects>Keys but nothing is jumping out at me as to which...
    Thanks!

    I understand what the problem is and have suggested the solution - the inverse of the pleasantville effect. That is, instead of desaturating the majority of the scene leaving ONE element alone, you want to desaturate ONE element leaving the majority of the scene alone. This is accomplished by simply inverting the masking so that the desaturation happens ONLY on the one item.
    Or, you could try to isolate the focus on the red jersey but employing the LIMIT EFFECT control sliders in the 3 way CC. It can also be accomplished in Color if you are familiar with that program.

  • Aperture 2.0 Activation Key does not work after using older trial version

    I was using the installed trial version of Aperture 1.5+ in my recently purchased MacBook Pro Duo (December 2007). After using the trial version for 30 days I debated whether to take the plunge ...and then within a few days recieved word that v2.0 was out at 199$. That motivated me ...however, here I am nearly one week later without ability to activate a full blown version of 2.0.
    I recieved the activation key, but it doesn't accept it in the dialog to upgrade in the trial version. Hint seems to be that it is not a serial number I am entering but an activation key.
    I did not order a boxed version, so what do I do now? Support is not too helpful as I have searched Apple's website and have no clue as to where to go.
    Last resort ... I want my $199 back!

    did you download the trial for Aperture 2

  • How to set current row in table after use tab key on inputText

    Hello all,
    My first post .., I'm newbie in ADF and I will try to explain my problem.
    For the moment we use ADF 11g (11.1.1.4), in a jsff page I have a table with an inputText column.
    On the valueChangeListener of the inputText, I invoke a method in a viewScope bean which call an EJB method, make some services in the EJB on the line modified. After that I refresh the VO and the table (because others values on the line have been modified) and reset the focus on the same inputText modified by the user with javaScript because focus was lost after refresh.
    So far, everything works fine.
    When I use the arrow keys to change the selected row in the table, it's work fine (focus is still in the next or previous inputText), but if user try to use tab key to change the current line, the inputText on the next line have the focus but the current row of the table is not changed (I think it's normal).
    My question : how can I change the current row after tab key pressed in this case ?
    I don't know if it's really clear, not easy to explain, don't hesitate to ask more details.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    Use a client event to listen for the keyboard entry and intercept the tab. The use af:serverListener to call the server to set the rowKey on the table and issue a PPR for the table to re-paint
    See sample 11 on http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/index-101235.html#CodeCornerSamples
    to learn about how to use the client listener and server listener
    FrankHi,
    Thanks a lot for your advices, I used the client and server listener
    I used this code on the method call in order to change the selection after key tab pressed, I don't know if it can be easier, but it works.
              if (LOGGER.isDebugEnabled()) {
              LOGGER.debug("START changeSelectedRow");
              RowKeySet oldRowKeySet = myTable.getSelectedRowKeys(); // get oldRowKeySet

                   if (LOGGER.isDebugEnabled()) {
                        LOGGER.debug("oldRowKeySet is null");
                   return;
              RowKeySetImpl newRowKeySet = new RowKeySetImpl(); // The new RowKeySet use to change the selectedRow
              DCIteratorBinding bindingIterator = ADFUtils.findIterator(MY_ITERATOR);
              bindingIterator.setRangeSize(-1);
              // set the new index of the current row.
              int index = bindingIterator.getCurrentRowIndexInRange();
              if (index < bindingIterator.getAllRowsInRange().length - 1) {
                   index++;
              bindingIterator.setCurrentRowIndexInRange(index);
              // get the current row after changed the index
              Row currentRow = bindingIterator.getCurrentRow();
              if (currentRow != null) {
                   ArrayList nextLst = new ArrayList(1);
                   nextLst.add(currentRow.getKey());
                   newRowKeySet.add(nextLst);

                   myTable.setSelectedRowKeys(newRowKeySet);

  • Textfield color is wrong after using cacheAsBitmap

    hi,
    I'm having issues with colorTransform and cacheAsBitmap.
    I'm changing a textfiield color at runtime from black to white and after that I'm caching the movieclip as a bitmap.
    The problem is that the welcome.text color is displayed in black instead of white after using cacheAsBitmap!
    How to fix that?
    Here is my code:
    var newColor:ColorTransform = headline.welcome.transform.colorTransform;
    newColor.color = 0xffffff;
    headline.welcome.transform.colorTransform = newColor;
    headline.cacheAsBitmap = true;
    Thanks

    * At the time this release note was written, the issue was not fully understood. As it happens, the issue with version 4 profiles was caused by a bug in ColorSync in the initial release of Snow Leopard. Apple responded quickly to the issue which was addressed in the OSX 10.6.2 update. i1Match does indeed build good version 4 ICC profiles on OSX 10.6.2 and 10.6.3, with preferences set to LUT (large) or matrix (small).
    The issue was not an X Rite issue.  If the system was making good profiles before and then stopped, it could be a series of bad profiles or something as simple as a bad USB cable.The sensor could be toast in the puck. At any rate, OP should be able to find an old profile and make it current. That might tell them whether or not it's a hardware issue or a software glitch. I have the i1 pro, which has a diagnostic program. i1 display does too?
    Or could it be something as simple as VIEW has switched Softproof?  What were you doing in Bridge or PS that you might have changed a setting?

  • Quality suffering, (looking pixely), after using Color Corrector in FCE?

    I need some help and I'm sure someone here has the answer I'm looking for!  I am editing a short film with FCE4.  I have converted my original footage, (shot with an EOS 550D at 720p), using MPEG Streamclip to Apple Intermediate Codec for importation and editing.  On a few clips, I have had to do some color correcting, (using the "Color Corrector" filter).  Unfortunately, these clips lose their sharpness afterwards and look somewhat "pixely".  What am I doing wrong?
    The above screen shot is after Color Corrector, (although it is diffucult to see my problem in this small pic).  The edges become rough and unsharp, which is most evident in the book on the left.
    The following pic is WITHOUT Color Corrector.
    What can I do to resolve this????

    Thank you everyone for trying to help!
    MtD:  BINGO!  I had the Render Settings at 50%, which I feel is sort of a beginner's mistake.  However, I have to say, I have used color corrector before and not experienced this problem.  I wonder if the settings somehow changed themselves with some update?  Curious.  Anyways, I changed it, re-rendered, and now it looks great.  Thanks again.
    To anyone else with the same problem, go to "Sequence" and then "Settings" to change the Render Settings to 100%
    And now I am just curious: why would you ever want to set your Render Settings to LESS than 100%?
