Using Chroma-Key in iMovie '09

[Genixel]

You have rather a lot of stuff running, that's probably why it's going so slow.

What are your specs?

[Mega2010AnimeGirl]

Do you have to have a green background for this?

[The1stDirector]

You are officially one of my favorite people.

[IchbinBauchi]

thanks for the flick.. helped me out!!

[NewAgeDirector]

Great video keep up the good work.

[OsirisFlores]

muchas gracias , saludos desde México .

[TheSaydaMay]

I hate the fact that you can only use green. :(

[Genixel]

@TheSaydaMay On iMovie '11 you can use blue as well.

[MargolottaVetinari]

thank you!!!

[MrCoolbdot]

Supppper helpful!!!

[Jessiesuppp]

how did u make the floating light? plzzzz reply!

[evenmedia]

does it also work with blue screen? and is this effect also available at iMovie for iPad?

[AlwayzRandom247]

Wow!!! Thanks for posting! :D It worked right away!

[Melodybrooke]

Awesome! Worked like a charm. I would never have figured this out on my own. Thank you!!!

[Preaccomplishment]

You can use any color, but you should be aware that using a different color will take away that color from anything else in the screen - i.e. If you use black and have black hair or black on your clothes, they are going to look like they're vanishing.

[macreviewer1228]

well you can copy and paste. or just go under clip preferences and adjust the length in seconds....

[rongcung]

Hi! Thanks for your tutorial, but how can you do this with other color background- white for example?? Thanks a lot!

[osmcooljen]

Awesome! where can u you get the green green green screen in the back??!?

[XPxVistaxOSX]

@osmcooljen The green screen is some poster board that I purchased at an Art Supply store.

[Thenightindark]

@osmcooljen you can buy it on Amazon. It is not really expansive.

[TheAleshaK]

How do you get that awesome intro?! thanks

[TheOriginalEmoEmu1]

Mac FTW!! D:<

[ricardo6677]

[whoswhojn]

[90sShowsRbetter1379]

[peedeypot]

HOW THE HECK DID YOU MAKE THE INTRO??? ITS SO COOL!!!

[EbbaOfficial]

[amazingmiki]

Chris Pirillo!

[piratearicat]

If I don't have the green bg at the clip, how can I make the chroma key effect??

[xelentoliver]

Will iMovie recognize a gray screen which isn't green because I've seen a chroma screen which looks pretty nice but I'm not sure if iMovie just recognizes a green screen.

[thevictorstudios]

so what if the screen is not green, what if its blue? Or red idk plz reply

[alesmv]

que cuadro mas horrible en la pared !!! Horror podria aplicarse el chroma key a su caso y disimular algo tanta mediocridad !!

[ergerq]

does u have to use 1 of the built in backgrounds? or can u use any video/image as a background? oh and is this a imovie 09 only feature, cuz my imovie don`t lok like u`rse, i`ve been using imovie and mac 4 a long time but never found out about the green screen, tnx in advantage

[ergerq]

@ergerq never mind, i figured it out tnx a lot, and not only did u teach med the green screen, i got split screen on the same time, this is soooooooo great, and i can do way more advanced stuff than showing in this video, adding any film, image or background to it, great tnx...AGAIN

[Clayman7400]

is it ok if it is 8.0?

[Schmak1]

are those the only options for backgrounds? or can you use your own photo as the background????

[zestypapercups]

likee how do u get the origanal greenscrean to begin with

[zestypapercups]

what happenes if u dnt have a green backround though, and you just wanna put a regular vid of someone on????

[techboy710]

can you do and other color besides green?

[EthaanChristian]

Thank you SO much.

lol i didnt know you had to put the picture in before the clip.. i was like.. wtf why is my picture not replacing the green screen?

[MrShortyMcShorts]

how did u make the intro?

[Figzlikesvidz]

how do u do it so that the projects are at the bottom and the events on top? mine is the opposite.

[CrazyJackStudios]

if u havent already figured it out

on the left side of the windows edge, there is a video camera icon, next to that, there should be an arrow curving down and an arrow curing up icon... click that and there you go...

[TheGreeniPodRocker]

@Figzlikesvidz pause at :55 and look at the middle right. see the arrow(Next to the camera looking thing) that kinda looks like a recycling thing (just only 2) well that thing swithes them... ya

[sevseanarm1]

do you need a green screen?

[takuya124]

@ sevseanarm1 obv or a blue screen works to

[eryfranci]

[xFANPiREbabex]

When I drag and drop photos or backgrounds, it won't show up on imovie 09 on my time line. I don't know why..can someone help me?

[fishlover405]

go to imovie, prefrences check off show advanced tools

[trucker47]

Now that's a Cool Beginning!

[haloangel65]

thsnks

[adigitalb]

why would you copy and paste??? just extend the clip length....much easier and less confusing

[TeamOathProductions]

haaha i have the same intro

[Que70]

This is greenscreen key, it only keys out green, chroma key keys out any color you want

[NarutoFreaks77]

lol thats a pic of chris pirillo

[sloth514111]

thankyou soooo much

[OriginalMitch]

i have a vista laptop but im saving up for a mac.. is it worth it or should i stay with pc

[XPxVistaxOSX]

Macs have a better OS, look nicer, preform faster than Vista PCs and the hardware/software integration on OSX is amazing. Save up and when you have enough buy the MAC!!!

[thevictorstudios]

@XPxVistaxOSX fuck yea buy a mac

[travelsonic]

@XPxVistaxOSX Not to mention the OS manages memory usage much better.

[midgetking101]

@OriginalMitch i personally like pc because its more complex and macs are too user friendly its like they are made for retards... but apple does make good programs...

[nickhansbauer]

@OriginalMitch so did u ever get your mac?

[themacbook2]

how did u do that intro

[XPxVistaxOSX]

On the Mac download a program called Stars War TSG, also check out MacOSXTutorials12 as he did a video on it , check out his channel and search for the tutorial, it should you really help you in creating the intro.

[speedycraze]

Hey nice new intro you should have made it actually go though not just stay in place but still good also nice tut
