Greetings?
im shooting green screen with JVC HM700 72060p HQ. any suggestions to a good key in Motion or Final Cut? I've played around with Motion a bit, pretty good results, but still some little zig zags?
Thanks
Travis

I use DV Matte. The same things that make it good for DV video also work well for HDV and XDCAM EX. The HM100 and HM700 have this weird choma pattern that can be smoothed out with DV Matte's vertical and horizontal smoothing it can really make a big difference if you notice much of a problem.

PHYX keyer is really good but the absolute best is Keylight.

Thanks guys, i will try both PHYX keyer and keylight's trial demo and see how they work and choose the best. Thanks again for your feedback.
