Is there a way to chroma key 2 different colours at the same time?

[Foody]

I’m trying to edit some clips and add a background to them, however the background used in the clip had poor lighting and as a result, chroma key only worked on half of the screen. Is there a way to fix this?

I believe that you can only have 1 Chroma Key: Simple filter on a clip and only 1 Chroma Key: Advanced filter. If you have both then the last one you applied is the one used.

You can try changing the “Distance” parameter of the CK: Simple filter to include more colours similar to the one you chose. The CK: Advanced has far more control of the colours included, so I would experiment with that.

Is your greenscreen a video of a person talking with little movement? If so take a look at this post for a possible solution:

Is there any way how to remove a backround?

For a way of doing this that is free of charge and uses OBS and ZOOM see Kevin Stratvert’s excellent tutorial at: [✂ How to Remove Video Background - no green screen needed] This has various options you can use to spice up your video.

Another way of keying out uneven green screens

I had shot a video with just a lighting on the foreground (and not on the background). The end result was that the green screen had uneven shades. Keying it out was difficult. Then, I tried to “blow-up” the greens using Technocolor — and that did it! I mean, that instantly keyed out the green background using Chroma: Simple. Then, I reverted back the color using Technocolor with a minimal setting. [lightscreen--1628003915] Here’s a video of the process: [Green Screen Tutorial in Shotc…

Very recently I saw a mention of using a Key Spill filter after a Chroma Key filter to help clean up the results. I have not yet figured out exactly what a key spill filter does, but might be worth investigating … ?
