Re: [FCP-L] How do I get better keying results in FCP?

I agree with Mark about Ultimatte - AND it works with Photoshop, too,
not to mention Avid. Before the advent of non-linear, Ultimatte was
the real mainstay of green/bluescreen keying and is still a gold
standard. Experienced compositors will tell you that they actually
choose specific keyers for specific sets of problems/circumstances, so
it's hard to call any ONE keyer "the best."
