Hi,
What template did you select?
What about using Intelligent SVRT?
What is the original video you're editing?
Dafydd

i did edit the video from scratch it was recorded in front of a green screen its a MOV file i tried AVI but still looked cheap looking not sure if am getting the setting wrong

Hi,
You really need to give more actual details of the video you're editing and the selection you're making to render to. Frame rate, frame size, what you're intentions are for the video - dictates what you should be rendering to?
See part J in the guide: http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/45453.page

MOV = QuickTime installed?
AVI = Poor choice

Greenscreen use - show us the footage - a screenshot?

Please provide a screenshot of the Edit workspace and a diagnostic of your computer - to let us know what your looking at, what your editing with, basic info? What build version of PowerDirector are you using? See guides, Part A, B, E & F

Hi Dafydd,

sorry i wasnt aware of the rest of the stuff.



The video am using it for an onine training platform. the original video is in a MOV file format and the attachement was rendered using H.624 MPEG -4 1920 x 1080/120p (60Mbps).

I am using PowerDirector 14 Ultimate - Incl. Premium Effects and Templates .

I've edited using the basic from video enhacer, using audio director removing the audio noise, added titles into the videos, used the color enhancer. The compuer am suing is a HP 2016 using windows 10

The attachment is a video that was already rendered and thats how it looks like

Hi Onica,
You've not exactly provided the requested information, the screenshot of the Edit workspace was a start and thank you for that bit of info. If you look at the guides I have directed you to, please see how and what info needs to be presented to us.
Observations so far:
1. No video attachment.
2. Information on the image noted, editor has Shadow Edit files active, possibly user has a low powered computer! Diagnostic is important, Part B please. If a user has a powerful enough computer with a more than decent GPU, there would be no need for Shadow Edit files (to be generated) and possibly eliminate some of the background issue with poor resolution in Preview and background file generation hassle Shadow files cause.
3. Unable to check what build version of PDR14 being used - see Part A.
4. No information on the MOV, see Part J in the guide.
5. No info on purpose and why 120p selected as the output.

Onica, I realise you're new to this forum and what I'm asking for may appear daunting, just take your time and work through the guides and see how to give the data.
Dafydd

Hi onica

Are you sure that you are not being super critical.

I had a look at your .png and I just thought the subject person was too bright in front of the green screen. The problem is compounded by the fact that you have a near monochrome background which makes the very colourful presenter look too detached from the background.

In reality there is probably no yellowish skin tone there at all. Try an experiment putting the presenter in front of a colourful background and see if he looks as bad.

Hi Robert,



Thank yiu for the response will try that. The reason i say it looks cheap is because i have a few videos that where done although am not sure what the person used to edit those videos.



I have attached a comparison to sho the diffrence am thinking maybe its the background that i chose thats causing the yellow color.

I think green screen man is simply over exposed. You could try changing the exposure with "fix enhance" in PD. Or if you have ColourDirector you could use that.

I'm sure toning him down a bit will make a big difference.

Also make sure your monitor is either set to factory settings or use a colorimeter to make sure that the monitor is calibrated properly. .

Anything I post unless stated with a reference is my personal opinion.

Hi Onica -

Robert (The Shadowman) is right in suggesting that the over-exposed colour in the subject is what's mainly causing the problem.

Also, it's always more difficult to chroma-key when your subject is blonde! Blonde hait that's a bit yellowish is too close to the green. Blue screens work better with blondes



As Robert suggested, you could adjust exposure and get some darkness into the subject, then try chroma-keying the green.
