Green Screen Video Keying in Final Cut Pro X [+Work With Masks to Refine Transparency]

thanks
dude

What if it removes your blue shirt, instead of the green screen? I've watched 10 videos form others, and none of them work for me.

Oh my goodness I hate green screens... thankful I've never had to edit anythi g with one, but if for some reason I'm required to, I'll be watching this again immediately!

You made it look like a breeze, compared to some of the projects I had partial involvement with (and with a non fcpx user) back in the day lol

THANK YOU for this - great video

5 years later.. & so helpful.... Thank you Ben for your years of commitment for making these tutorials... Youre always my go to guy for FCPX !!!

please stop saying "okay?".

Good story but a lot of “oke’ 😜

This was so helpful, I've been struggling with greenscreen - thanks.

I have a green outline around my subject when I use green screen. How do I fix it is driving me NUTS

Where is the transparency portion?

Thanks for sharing sir. How to animate Masks?

thank you for the masking tip!!

Very useful - short and to the point.

friggin ben, always helpful. thanks for posting.

Will this work when I am trying to replace a green screen portion of a still image with another image?For instance I am trying to crete an image that shows my eye through a gory hole in my hand.

Hi, thank you.
Where i can found a background studio sport which i can modify?

Thank you, kind sir.

Thank you Million!!! I hope to apply what you taught, it was so clear and helpful!! Thank you ! I was totally lost in my final cut pro

Ben thanks. Once you mask can you move person to one side. Or are they stuck in the middle. Help.

my Draw Mask does't work. "click and add point" doesn't show...:-/

thank you. i was in a hurry and this helped

Thank you! This is so helpful!

Ben, is there a way to make the actor appear behind an object that’s in a movie scene using final cut pro? For example a person being green screened into a movie scene of a bar and being masked behind the bar table as the bartender?

Hi Ben,

is there anyway to force something to be included, basically do the opposite of taking the mic out?

great tutorial! thanks

thanks, i didn't know how i must let the green screen work. but now i can

Hi, am i able to use this method on a video where people are dancing? i want to chnage the background.

So helpful. Thank you Ben!

For the most part, green screen works great, but the biggest challenge we have is when we shoot women with blond hair it makes hair pink once we change the background. Any advice? Thank you so much!

Thank you very much!

very helpful thanks so much

the only explanation of FCPX green screen that I've ever understood. But I think I missed a step where the microphone disappeared - was it enough to simply complete the control point circle around the actor, and then everything outside the circle disappears?

Ben, that was just great, thank you for the time you took to help people like me, cheers!

love your Vids, hey, which version of Final Cut Pro are you using?
i have seemed to made a mess of my view and don't know how to set it back to the default way it was when i got it. I can't even find the generator panel anymore.

thanks for the helpful tips!😃

you can see the draw mask line when the background is white or bright coloured - anyway to remove?

Great video Ben, thanks for taking the time out and sharing. Really helpful - Carl

Thank you this was super helpful

Hey Ben can you please tell me how to get my actor to dissolve away at the
end while the background stays the same? My problem is that is cuts to
black for a half second as the actor dissolves! Thank you!

Hi Benjamin: First I want to thank you for all the FCPX tutorials!!! You are AWESOME dude :-) You are a great teacher and I love watching your videos. Would it be possible for you to create a more in-depth Green Screen training video? I'm a Producer/Director and do rough edits. Most of the projects I've been working on are green screen, so I'd love to have some more knowledge about it. Thanks again for being such a fantastic teacher!!!
