| | Apart from the fact that this is a completely pointless video (just screen shots with no commentary explanation and awful copyright-free music). What you're talking about is lumakey, available in most editing packages. |

| | Not my words but the term for what you've just "discovered" Keying (graphics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
My comments may seem pointless to you since you know what your video is about. For the rest of the world who look, all we see is someone doing something in an editing program with no explanation, guide to what you're doing or commentary of any sort. If it's supposed to be an introŽduction to lumakey, then you should try to inform or instruct.
Also, I used the term "copyright-free music" which you felt the need to point out was "free sound loops not copyright protected". |

| | Instructional vids are hard to do well.
I think this needs some text of VO to explain stuff, also could be shorter.

| | First of all I'd like to agree with Guru and Mark, it definitely needs a voice over. Not only would it help explain what you're doing, but it will also allow the cheesy background music to actually be background music. The video will also seem to flow more quickly and hold more interest.
Secondly, That police character looked like it was computer generated, and if that's the case why not render it out with an alpha channel instead of messing around with a <b>Luma</b>Key? | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
