| While fiddling around with Rehan's ChromaKey transitions I found myself wanting to crop/mask the green/blue screen source clips to remove artifacts and unwanted material. Also some sizing and placement and maybe movement of the image on a background clip would be nice.
This is a kit to let you write XML to customize those parameters.
See <a href="http://vimeo.com/6153056">Demo Video</a> of using these effects.
If you like what you see,<a ... |

| Thanks monkman. I thought the Evian babies needed an attractive dancer in attendance :-) .
Here are some more useage <a href="http://vimeo.com/6332544">video samples</a>.
Blender (open source 3D Modeler with a steep learning curve) gave me some models to play with and I combined them with DPL CKPrep effects and Rehan's Chroma Key transitions.
The models were 3/4 view so I just gave them a green background and a simple animation of rotation (no scale or position). Rendering for about ... |

| If BlackIsTransparent is set to true, then colors at least as black as BlackBias will be set to the BackGroundColor. Works nicely on the transparent portion of an Animated GIF and some videos where black is not used for content.

| If by masking black you mean change black to a different color, then these are the lines of interest from the template above:
<color="purple"><BackgroundColor type="color" value="green" />
<BlackIsTransparent type="bool" value="true" />
<BlackBias type="float" value="0.03" /></color>
It only works for black, good luck, PatrickL |

| Harry, that is really well done visually and the audio matches wonderfully. :-)
How did you make the moving black blob clips?

| Thanks for the kind words gking. As a retired person I can only play so much golf and do so much yard work so I find this a nice creative outlet.
I was amazed and delighted by your PhotoShop video in the sharing forum.
As you may have noticed, I can write a little code but am artistically challenged. Perhaps you might want to use your skills to create some images for use by the folks here in MM land. Image Wipe Transitions, Animated Logo Effects and Transitions and these Curtains Effects ... |

| Hey TheOne. You are a little picky, but I like red curtains too.
Here is an image with the hue changed to red. <a href="http://home.comcast.net/~pleabo/MovieMaker/Images/Curtain2STR.png">red curtains</a>. A little color fringing left, but pretty good.
Just select the curtains with the magic wand in your image editor and you can change it too. Royal blue would be good ;-)
I'm sure MMK will post his DLL when it is ready.

| clasycassie welcome to the forums.
I use an old Paint Shop Pro (V4) to modify the curtain colors. Use Magic Wand (with shft and tolerance 80) to select all of the curtains and side curtains. Then Colorize to adjust the hue of the selected areas and save as a PNG file with the open area defined as transparent.
Post the hue (or rgb) color you would like and I could make you one that all of us could use.
Happy bday to your mom.
