Hi,

I would like to know to get out the green on the faces when your doing croma key.

The green is a cast that is a remnant from the reflection of the chroma on the subject. To get rid of it, you use a spill suppressor, or you have to color and replace all spill (chroma) pixels with another color post key.

You can also 'choke' your matte.

BUT... no matter what, light refraction around edges are almost impossible to key.

I use Primatte w/ Photoshop, and it does a reasonable job.

However if you really want to go tight, you have to think outside the box.

Go here for the "ChromaRazor":
