What is chromakey?
Read this short excerpt from wiki:
Chroma key compositing, or chroma keying, is a visual effects/post-production technique for compositing (layering) two images or video streams together based on color hues (chroma range). The technique has been used heavily in many fields to remove a background from the subject of a photo or video – particularly the newscasting, motion picture and videogame industries. A color range in the foreground footage is made transparent, allowing separately filmed background footage or a static image to be inserted into the scene. The chroma keying technique is commonly used in video production and post-production. This technique is also referred to as color keying, colour-separation overlay (CSO), primarily by the BBC, or by various terms for specific color-related variants such as green screen, and blue screen – chroma keying can be done with backgrounds of any color that is uniform and distinct, but green and blue backgrounds are more commonly used because they differ most distinctly in hue from most human skin colors. No part of the subject being filmed or photographed may duplicate the color used as the backing.
Remove background using VSDC free video editor chromakey color:
Before removing the background, keep in mind you need one green/ blue/black(whichever you refer) screen video clip and the background which can be a video clip or a still image.
I am taking one of my videos as background.
I have downloaded a green screen clip to show you how to do it. You can make your own green screen video and edit the background.
keep in mind to adjust Min brightness threshold:150, Min chromacityU threshold:120, Min chromacityV threshold:125 (it worked for me, it may not work for you).
