Chapter 12 Commotion Clip FX
Spill Killer EZ
Spill Killer EZ is a simplified version of Spill Killer. Depending on the color relationship between the fore-
ground and background elements, you’ll occasionally need to use Spill Killer to correct some spill situa-
tions that Spill Killer EZ cannot. Spill Killer provides more specific control than Spill Killer EZ but is more
demanding.
If you’re correcting bright fringing around edges, rather than a soft, reflected spill, set the Range value
high and the Tol e r an ce value low. Conversely, to affect as much of the image as possible, set Range low
and To l era nc e high.
Screen Color -
specifies the color of the spill.
Range -
specifies the lower value that determines which pixels will be corrected. The lower the setting, the
more pixels that will be affected. Range also defines the limit of spill suppression. The lower the
setting, the more correction that will occur.
To le ran ce -
controls the upper value defining which pixels will be corrected. The higher the setting, the more
pixels will be affected. In most cases, 100% tolerance is recommended.
Color Suppression -
determines how much of the screen color is suppressed. Although 100% suppression works in
many cases, results can vary substantially based on source footage.
