Chroma Keying (Modeler+Vegas) by Fairydust

Okay, so I'm new to this forum but I'm not so new to editing all in all! Thou I just learned about Chroma Keying a while back I think I can effectivly use it by this time and I thought I should share it as a little guide here and a nice way to say "Hello".

Okay, here we go...

1)
First of, start your 'Model Viewer'.

2)
Then insert your creature or whatever it is that you want to be superimposed.

3)
When that is done you have to change your background color to a color that is NOT on your character/creature... the reason for this is when you Chroma Key the effect removes a specific color. So if you got a green dress use blue background and if you got a blue dress use green background, you get my point. (Only works with Green/Blue/Red)
__________________________________________________ __________________________

4)
The option for this is 'View' then 'Background Color..'
__________________________________________________ __________________________
5)
Where it says 'Red', 'Green' and 'Blue' just enter 255 for the color you want as your background and the other 2 should be set to 0.

6)
Now record you're thingy with fraps and when you're done it's time to head over to Video Vegas!

Okay... we're here in Video Vegas and we're going to start our Chroma Keying!

7)
You can start by opening your two clips that you're going to chroma key. The higher layer should be the model with the green/blue background and the lower one is the one you want as background, Onyxia's Lair or whatever.

8.)
After this it is as simple as just pressing ALT+8 for Video FX, then in the list find "Chroma Keyer".

9)
Now pick the same color of the effect as your background, so if you got a green background pick 'Pure Green Screen'
