Accessing the Modular Keyer

As with the traditional Keyer, you load three clips into the Modular Keyer to create a key: a front clip, a back clip, and a key-in clip. You use the key-in clip, which is usually the same as the front clip, to create the matte for the front clip.

NoteFor information on accessing the Modular Keyer from Action, see Accessing the Colour Corrector and the Keyer from Action.

To access the Modular Keyer:

In the Main menu, click Effects.
In the Effects menu, click Modular Keyer.
Select a front, back, and key-in clip. Make sure the front, back, and matte clips are the same resolution. If not, resize them. See Resize Settings.
Select a destination.
