    Re: chromakey backdrop

    Not easy to do by hand. There is special software available just for chromakey photography that will get rid of the color cast. Keeping the subject far from the back ground helps, but I've found that some edges like fur will always have the color invasion. I've read some tutorials on how to remove it, but so far I'm not very good at it, so I won't try to repeat them. "Photoshop Masking&Compositing" by Katrin Eismann has a description of how to do it. If I ever feel the need for this technique, I think I'll just buy the software... Luckily, the I got the background dirt-cheap on Ebay so I didn't lose anything.
