1 TITLE section
The title key function allows you to superimpose
characters or graphics by cutting out part of the
foreground video with a key source signal, and
applying the effect to the background video.
There are two ways of using the key source signal: as a
luminance key depending only on image intensity, or
as a chroma key, based on a particular color.
Using the buttons in columns 1 and 2 of the TITLE
section, you can insert two title keys (TITLE 2
requires the optional BKDF-711 board to be installed).
To insert a title key, press the TITLE button in the
effect transition section.
The TITLE 1 and TITLE 2 buttons include the
following.
CRK (chroma key) button: Press this to use a
chroma key to cut out the image. When pressed,
this button lights, and portions of the foreground
image of the designated color are cut out as the
key source signal. When this button is lit, the
LUM button is off.
You can carry out chroma keying simply, using
the auto chroma key function.
LUM (luminance) button: Press this to use a
luminance key to cut out the image. When
pressed, this button lights, and portions of the
foreground image are cut out based on the
luminance level. When this button is lit, the CRK
button is off.
