Creating composites with semi-transparent elements using chroma key in Kinemaster Pro

Kinemaster Pro is a video editing app for mobile devices that allows users to create professional-looking videos using various tools, including chroma keying.

Chroma keying is a technique for compositing two video layers together by removing a specific color (known as the “key” color) from one layer, making that layer’s pixels transparent. This allows the underlying layer to show through.

The key color is usually green or blue, which is why it’s commonly known as “green screen” or “blue screen” compositing. In Kinemaster Pro, you can use the chroma key feature to create composites with semi-transparent elements by adjusting the transparency of the keyed-out color.

You can also fine-tune the chroma key effect by adjusting the color threshold, edge thickness, and other parameters to get the desired effect.

Here is a tutorial on how to create composites with semi-transparent elements using the chroma key in Kinemaster Pro:

  1. Open Kinemaster Pro and start a new project.
  2. Add the video or image used as the background layer by tapping on the “+” button in the Media tab and selecting the appropriate file.
  3. Add the video or image used as the foreground layer by tapping on the “+” button again and selecting the appropriate file.
  4. Tap on the foreground layer to select it, and then tap on the Chroma key button in the screen’s lower right corner.
  5. Use your finger to select the color you want to remove from the foreground layer, then adjust the color threshold, edge thickness, and other parameters to fine-tune the chroma key effect.
  6. To make the composited element semi-transparent, tap on the Opacity button in the right corner of the screen, and adjust the transparency level of the top layer to your liking.
  7. Once you’re happy with the composite, tap on the Save button in the upper right corner of the screen to export your video with the composited element.

Note: you should consider having a good lighting condition on the background and foreground footage to have better results and reduce the edge halos or other unwanted artifacts. Additionally, you can use other tools like a mask, rotoscope, and color correction to enhance the final output of your composite.

Please keep in mind that the exact location of these tools and options might vary depending on the version of Kinemaster Pro you’re using. Still, the overall steps for creating composites with semi-transparent elements should be the same.
