Chroma-Key Green/Blue - Setup for Dynamic Cutouts and/or PreRendered Images

Photographing on a chroma-key green or blue background allows you to upload images to be automatically cutout. Cutout images can be used to pre-render onto backgrounds of your choice or made available for dynamic background selections online.

Setting Up for Chroma-Key Cutouts

  1. Go into your event in CORE and click on Chroma-Key/Knockouts on the left menu
  2. Click Configure Folder
    1. Select add folder and enter the name of your folder (Note:  the folder name you enter here is the folder you must upload your chroma-key images into)
    2. Select Cutout Method:  Chroma Key
    3. Select "Allow customers to choose dynamic backgrounds on retail" if you would like your customer to be able to select from different backgrounds online.
    4. Select "Pre-Render thee images to a background I have already uploaded" if you would like CCS to render your images onto a background.  (Note:  this requires you to have an event where you have previously uploaded background images.  Click here for more information on uploading your own backgrounds
      1. If PreRendering enter the event #, Folder, Image of your backgrounds.  You will need both a vertical and horizontal version of your background.
      2. Enter the name of the folder you'd like your rendered images to go into.   This folder must be unique and not have any other images uploaded into it.  We recommend, your output folder be similar to the original folder name.  Example:  if the original chroma-key images were uploaded into folder  KK214, then set the output as KK214a.  This will help you manage the images later.
    5. Click save
    6. If have additional folders to setup or would like to render to more than one background, repeat the steps for each folder of images you'll be uploading and/or for each background you'd like rendered
