![]() KEYLIGHT 1.2 MANUAL 2018 FULL SIZEIt's a whole new “humanizing” media initiative which doesn't challenge bandwidth the way full size videos do. You see instructors standing next to bullet-point examples of their topic or product, often interacting with it- often only when you click your mouse to direct the presentation. It's a little spooky to see leprechaun-like folks talking to you or to each other, but, when done right, message transcends media, and it's compelling. You often see spokespeople walking out of nowhere onto a browser web page when you load it, to say hello, deliver a mission statement or company overview. Live-on-webpage production is becoming extremely popular. Why are we seeing so many green shoots? Is the economy really improving? Today, whole feature films like 300 and SIN CITY are greenscreen productions, unless everybody’s blonde. Today, for digital film and video, greenscreen is enormously popular, because the green channel in video carries most all the luminance information needed to isolate a key background from a foreground subject. (It’s always from the UK, isn’t it? Except Technicolor itself was invented in Boston by refugees from MIT.) It was an arduous workflow from shooting against blue, controlling spill, pulling male and female traveling mattes… a headache. ![]() In the 1930’s Technicolor’s London lab came up with the blue screen process which better suited color film. Originally, blue-filtered imagery was motion picture in-camera special effects. Different colors? True and blue is better for blonde characters, green for everybody else. If you're wondering what the difference between bluescreen and greenscreen might be, well, let’s see. It comes from a product developed specifically for motion picture chromakey work, normally bluescreen production. Keylight is used on chromakey shots in virtually any major feature film you can think of. ![]() Keylight is a powerful plug-in from UK's The Foundry, (maker of the high-end Nuke compositer/VFX program). KeyLight 1.2 in After Effects CS4, under OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard, (but not 64-bit) with virtually identical controls. KEYLIGHT 1.2 MANUAL 2018 PRONot a good idea because you can inadvertently untwist the screw and the cover with the batteries will fall out leaving the light completely useless.Keylight 2.0 in Final Cut Pro 7 under OSX 10.5 Leopard. ![]() The screw that you could use to put a lanyard or key ring on also secures the battery compartment cover. No lanyard (and shouldn't put one on) but you can attach a separate removable pocket clip (2 hex-head screws). "Splash resistant" so if you have it in your pocket and fall into a pond or surf you probably can kiss it an expensive goodbye. It does make the light about 30% heavier but who's counting. It uses 2 AAA batteries in parallel (or 2 of the higher voltage 10440 Li-Ion) which I guess is an advantage as other very bright key lights have non-replaceable batteries. 2 stars because it is bright but good luck trying to find that turbo mode especially if you need it quickly. NOT user friendly (you really have to read/decipher the instruction sheet). A simple key light that has 10 modes buried under the single button for the user to decipher. Well I'm going to disagree here not because they make poor products but because they make gimmicky products. ""An Excellent Manufacturer" is there on the instruction sheet.
