    About

    In practice. What you can do with Primatte Keyer.

    Primatte Keyer is a Red Giant postproduction plugin. Its purpose: extract a subject shot against green or blue screen, then refine edges and colour spill.

    Compare the result with functions already available in your host. Judge control over a real shot rather than the number of available presets.

    Access is through Red Giant, also included in Maxon One. This is not a standalone purchase priced at the cost of the suite. Check the plugin against your exact host version. Archive source material and a final render rather than relying only on a plugin-dependent project.
