Hello there

I have seen a few posts stating how it is possible to put a live actor into an Iclone scene without requiring Pop Video.

I have Premiere Elements and CompositeLab and was wondering if anyone can tell me how you create the opacity mask in either of these programs.

Many thanks

Mick

Actually, Nigel figured out the most simple method of all that should work in any video editor.

1)  Open green screen footage in video editor

2)  Mask out the green with chromakey

3)  Turn the "brightness" up to high til the video is white.

That's it, render and you have a mask video.

That is impressive for sure.  Wires, now we can tape together our multiple green sheets from Pinnacle. :P

I have just purchased this for the very reason that it now does the green screen masking within the converter.

I was not going to buy more software just for that reason and the video editing programmes that I have installed could not complete the task.

Also by logging into my account I was able to get the Members Discount and also will get a free upgrade to v2 when released.
