Setup a Chroma Key Perfectly in Wirecast + No More Rendering!
How do we get the green screen on Wirecast or any chroma key to look perfect without overcorrection leading to our face being distorted or not removing enough of the green and leaving artifacts in the background? My hope is that this tutorial will be very helpful to show you how to do it in Wirecast or in any software with a chroma key!

The key to doing this is getting the exact right color. In Wirecast here's how you go pick the color. It's got the Chroma key option in the upper left over here, and then what you need to do is get the exact right color.

When you get the exact right green color, it will fade everything out correctly without making it look distorted.

For some reason, I don't even remember how I picked this color. It was just in somehow. This color has worked perfectly for me and it's #D3FEED

Now, this exact color will depend on the lighting you have got, it will depend on the exact green screen you have got, and it will depend on the pigment of your skin, and potentially a shirt you are wearing, your hair or any makeup or costumes or whatever.

For me, this one has worked perfectly, the number #D3FEED.

Now, what you can do to experiment, you can pick a color with the mouse. You can just click "pick a color" with the mouse, and then you can test out different colors to see which one looks the best.

Now, what's really nice with Wirecast is that you can just do this once.

You just put the color in there and do it one time, and then it's there indefinitely. You don't have to go through and pick a color every time you use the software, and then render the video. It's just automatically recorded with the Chroma key in.

That's why I love Wirecast so much because it just makes this whole process so fast.

All I do, I literally hit this record button up here and it records the video. The Chroma key is just right and I can move my face around wherever I want, and it just stays like that.

Now, with each of these, you have got the "Key threshold" here, which means you can turn the "Key threshold" up or down.

If you turn the "Key threshold" up a lot that can impact what it looks like.

Now, if you have got your color picked correctly it shouldn't matter too much, but you see then, if you turn the "Key threshold" down to zero it brings the green screen back.

The ideal number you want to get with the "Key threshold" is to put it to the point where it gets the exact right amount of green cut out, but then doesn't distort any.

Now, this lighting is just working so good. Even cranking the "Key t
