Blue Screen HELP

[asapfilms]

Im shooting a sword fight movie, and decided to have people jumping around and flying through the air, I was going to do it with a blue screen but when I filmed the footage, the blue in the blue screen wouldnt go away... Any tips for getting a blue screen to work. I ended up cutting out all the "jump" scenes of the project but could I have some help for next time???

thanks

What program are you using, and what settings did you use to key out the blue screen?

I use Adobe pro, I know how to do it, I use that key all the time for image effects and stuff but Im wondering about lighting and stuff

For flying, you have to light the actor from directly in front of them to get rid of any shadows. The green screen has be be very evenly lit. I'm not sure if Premiere has this feature, but in Final Cut Express there is an icon that looks like an eye dropper and you can select the color from the video to key out.

If the program is giving you trouble, you could try this:
