hey all,
The other day i got given footage shot in front of a horrible green screen and it was a small job so couldn’t be bothered messing around in after effects (lazy i know, but we’ve all had to do shit jobs to help a client out! ha) so i used the HSL key, selected the green, lifted the saturation. boosted the greens and in 30 seconds had taken out wrinkles and shadows and just keyed it out in FCP.
Just thought i’d share..hope it helps

Good to know when you’re not in proximity to a computer with AE.

I’d do it in AE though, the same thing as you did in Color. Boost the saturation, and do a garbage matte and so on as a base for me (or some other compositor) to carry along with keying etc.

The Hue/Saturation is what you would’ve gone with in AE.
