green/blue background effect

[kj1983]

Are they using green/blue background effect with the guy talking in the front?

How can I achieve the same thing in Adobe After Effects? Thanks.

Using the same idea.. capture the first raw video.. and capture the second video with green/blue in the background?

Some background info on chroma keying: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluescreen

Or since you mention YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6brdwY-dvU

I don't think After Effects can do it, though, at least without some addons.

You can also do a internet search for ' chroma keying ' and find more.

EDIT: I was probably wrong about AE not being the proper tool. After some searching: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=adobe+after+effects+green+screen&btnG=Search

AE Pro Bundle should be able to do it with ease with keylight. Standard edition also has a wealth of keying tools.
