CloseYY_MagicKey is a very powerful keying plugin, minus the complicated settings. It was designed specifically with the keying-out of premultiplied stock elements (explosions, blood, muzzle flares, etc) in mind, and never takes a long time to set up.
Each of these keys (free from detonationfilms.com) took only seconds to set up, and are ready to composite into any scene. YY_MagicKey always produces high-quality extractions (unless of course the footage is low quality).
Parameters:
- Background Color: Color that will be keyed out
- Crush Transparent: The bigger this is, the more stuff will be keyed out
- Crush Opaque: The bigger this is, the more opaque the keyed image will be
- Despill Amount: Removing any cast-color from the background
- Despill Size: Size of the border around the image to "despill" (0 for none, 1 for whole image)
View:
- Source: Unmodified source
- Alpha Matte: Transparency matte
- Despill Matte: Areas to perform despill
- Final Output: Exactly what it says on the tin

Ease and Wizz
