Unbelievable DV/HD/HDV chroma keying with astonishing 3D virtual set technology.

The award-winning ULTRA technology has revolutionized keying and background replacement. Due to the complexity, cost and typically poor results, chroma keying has usually been reserved for special effects or big-budget projects. ULTRA changes that by making keying so effective, fast and great looking that it can be used as a daily production tool, giving producers powerful new creative options. With ULTRA, location is no longer a limitation.

Ultra High-Quality DV/HD/HDV Keying
- Vector KeyingTM Technology: Works with portable setups, even on client locations and compensates for keying nightmares, such as uneven lighting, wrinkled backdrops and frizzy hair.
- HD Support: Supports HD and HDV resolutions including 1080i, 1080p, and 720p with support for a variety of standard frame rates including 24fps.
- High-Speed GPU Keying: Dramatically increases speed of keying when using more recent graphics cards (GeForce 5700 and Radeon 9600 or better for SD. GeForce 6600 and Radeon 9800 or better for HD).
- One-Click Key: Key in the field or the studio and achieve better quality results, even on complex keys, with less tweaking.
- DV Video Keys: Get excellent results from the reduced color space of DV video sources.
- Live Preview: Use a laptop and connect ULTRA to your camera on location to set lights and check quality. Adjust camera shot, angle & zoom to fit the scene while shooting.

Innovative New Keying Features
- Flexible Image Placement: Edge cropping, scaling, and orientation settings allows total control of your source clips.
- Mask Paint: Paint out areas of the input source with an easy soft-edged brush turns difficult shots into easy ones.
- Insert Additional Video Sources: Place clips right into the many virtual sets available that are sold separately. Add up to four positionable B-Sources in user-created scenes.
- Create Custom Virtual Environments: Add your own backgrounds, B-Sources and semi-transparent foreground images.
- Digital Still Camera Support: High-resolution stills up to 4096 x 4096 allow digital still camera images to be used as input sources and backgrounds for output to print or HD resolution video. (File formats support include .bmp, .jpg, .psd. png, .gif, .tiff, .tga, and .ppm)

Compatibility with Industry Standards
- Output Image Sequences: Integrates seamlessly with compositing tools that prefer numbered still image sequences instead of video clips including: After Effects®, Combustion® and Commotion®.
- Wide Compatibility: Export video clips into all major editing applications that accept standard AVI, HD, MPEG2 files or DV video clips.
- Extensive Input: Video inputs include AVI, MPEG, and DV files or any format for which you have a compatible codec installed. Now supports QuickTime input as well as direct support for input in Avid® MXF format.
- Extensive Output: Output files can be uncompressed AVI, DV, QuickTime, Flash (FLV or SWF) and 24-bit or 32-bit AVIs with alpha channel for later compositing with any standard video editing system, such as Avid®, Adobe® Premiere®, After Effects®, Apple® Final Cut® Pro, Sony® Vegas® and more.
