Portland, Oregon – Red
Giant, makers of essential software tools for
filmmakers, editors, VFX artists and motion designers, today
released Primatte Keyer 5.1, an update that
adds support for Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro X (FCP X)
and Motion. Using the same keying technology from blockbuster hits
such as “Lord of the Rings,†“Harry Potterâ€
and “Spider-Man,†Primatte Keyer lets users easily
remove a blue- or green-screen background, often with the touch of
a button.
“Over the last year we’ve heard, non-stop, from
editors that they need chroma keying technology in their
NLEs,†said Aharon Rabinowitz, Red Giant’s head of
marketing. “Many of them have expressed frustration, both
with needing to leave their editor to do even basic compositing and
with the loss of time that comes with it. We’re really
excited to help editors solve these challenges.â€
Primatte Keyer 5.1 takes the powerful chroma keying tools that
have, up until now, only been available to Adobe After Effects
users and puts them into the hands of editors. Primatte Keyer now
supports After Effects, Premiere Pro, FCP X and Motion, giving all
users of these host apps direct access to high-end tools for fast
automatic keying, digital green screen relighting, and
indispensable compositing and cleanup tools.Â
