Chroma Key Composition and Basic
Settings
In creating a chroma key image, either a normal mix or an
additive mix can be used. To select which, use the Type
>Chroma Adjust menu for the keyer.
Normal mix: The foreground is cut out with the key
signal, and then combined with the background, which
has also been cut out with the key signal.
Additive mix: The background, which has been cut out
with the key signal, is combined with the unshaped
foreground. This is effective for a natural-looking
composite when the scene includes glass or other
translucent objects.
Plane function
In an additive mix, the foreground is not shaped by the key
signal, and variations in the (blue) background appear in
the composite image. To prevent this, it is possible to set a

5
In the <Mix Mode> group, select [Normal Mix] or
[Additive Mix] depending on the desired type of
chroma key composition.
When using an additive mix for chroma keying, the
(typically blue) background parts of the foreground video
must be converted to black. For this, use the color cancel
function (see page 98).
Using the plane function
In an additive mix, since no key is applied to the
foreground, any variations in the (typically blue)
background may appear in the composite image. To avoid
this, a particular luminance level can be set for the (blue)
background, and regions of lower luminance forcibly cut.
