BlueScreen Key
BlueScreen Key compares the blue channel to the red and green channels and creates a matte based on the
differences.
Min and Max -
specify the minimum and maximum threshold values. Values below the minimum are black; val-
ues above the maximum are white; and everything in between is a gradation of grays between the
two.
While it is possible to set a minimum value higher than the maximum value, Avid Liquid always treats
the lower value as the Min value and the higher as the Max value. For example, values of Min 40 and Max
60 will be treated the same as Min 60 and Max 40.
Suppress Blue Spill -
makes the value of the blue channel the same as the Min value to remove blue spill. When footage
is filmed against a bluescreen, a blue tint, or spill, may appear on the foreground image. Linking
the blue channel to the Min value removes this blue from the foreground.
Invert Matte -
reverses the black and white areas of the matte.
