of the Low Gain control as defining a "Transparent to Opaque" range for
keying the dark areas of your foreground image.
• High Clip This control is similar to Low Clip , except you use it to select
the higher (brighter) luminance values to be keyed.
• High Gain This control is similar to Low Gain , except you use it to set the
range of luminance values you want to be partially transparent based on the
value set by the High Clip control. You can think of the High Gain control
as defining an "Opaque to Transparent" range for keying the lighter areas of

• Transparent Outside Mask Select this option to apply transparency

• Invert Key Select this to invert the key selection, giving you the opposite
result of what you originally selected
• Show Key as Output Select this to display the matte used to create your
key effect. This enables you to further refine your key settings. For example,
when you display the matte, areas of your clip that are completely
transparent appear as black, and opaque areas appear as white. If you notice
some white spots that you want to key, you can adjust the key controls until
the undesired white spots disappear.
