Any of you seen Stuck On You?
Is it possible what they were doing in the Chroma Key scene? Having something come through on a monitor instantly with the chroma effect already rendered (Keying out a total person)

I haven't seen it, but I assume it is something done with a video switcher that does real time keying or a cam with an UltraMatte installed that also does real time keying. Same thing your local News weatherman does everyday

Well, what happens is that there are these siamese twins, one of them lands a role on a tv series and in order to get rid of the one, they key him out. Now the thing is, they just had a camera hooked up to a monitor and the one twin was in a blue suit and he was not coming through. I'd expect they'd need a backplate or something! I hate not being able to watch a movie without having to rack my brains thinking about this stuff

I've seen that in action ebfore, but I have to say that it is not nearly as good as post-production keying. There is this booth in a mall near me where they have a chroma screen set up and real time keying equipment. Then they charge like $30 for a tape of you in a scene. It's pittiful, there is tons of green overflow around the person, and it looks very unprofessional. I always feel like going up to them and telling them just that. (But then again the average person doesn't know the difference, they just sit there and go "WOW, how did they do that?!" Pittiful. ....Sorry, kind of OT there, but oh well.Raptor wrote: or a cam with an UltraMatte installed that also does real time keying. Same thing your local News weatherman does everyday

Well to do it right it will be a studio cam with UltraMatte, and the keying there is almost perfect, assuming the lighting is correct, which in a studio setting should be damned near perfect. I wouldn't base the results from a professional broadcast studio on a mall kiosk

you guys have seen this effect millions of times...do you watch the news, cause they do the same thing with the weather reports! they dont use UltraMatte either. they just have a machine that does chromakeying, its not a program, its hardware. My school has this same thing, im in a class called TV Tech, and we have a blue screen that we use all the time.
