So I’m currently working on RKZ’s Are You Down music video, due to be released in a few weeks time, along with his EP PowerTrippin’.
Above you can see an ugly ass image, in which half of RKZ missing. This is because he shot himself against a greenscreen for me to remove afterwards and place some epicness into it.
Now, for those of you who don’t know anything about chroma-keying in the film and video world, basically if you make something all of one colour, it can be removed in it’s entirety and replaced by removing that exact colour from the video. Simply put. It’s a bit more detailed than that, but for speed, that is the gist.
In the example above, which is split in two, the left side is the keyed footage and the right side is the original footage. You may think “what the fuck is going on!? Why is RKZ gone?!”
The answer is this, computers are stupid and because the green isn’t actually green and matches his skin too much, hence RKZ is now gone.
My job is to make him come back and remove the green in a clean way so it looks good and not shit. This is no easy task.
Fuck my life.
