Red Giant Releases Primatte Keyer Version 5.1 - Published on 08/12/14

Red Giant today releases Primatte Keyer 5.1, an update that adds support for Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro X (FCP X) and Motion. Primatte Keyer lets users easily remove a blue- or green-screen background, often with the touch of a button. Its time-tested tools and friendly user interface have made Primatte Keyer the industry favorite for chroma keying and compositing. Version 5.1 brings the same powerful tools to editors, directly within their NLE or motion graphics tool of choice.

Portland, Oregon - Red Giant, makers of essential software tools for filmmakers, editors, VFX artists and motion designers, today released Primatte Keyer 5.1, an update that adds support for Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro X (FCP X) and Motion. Using the same keying technology from blockbuster hits such as "Lord of the Rings," "Harry Potter" and "Spider-Man," Primatte Keyer lets users easily remove a blue- or green-screen background, often with the touch of a button.

"Over the last year we've heard, non-stop, from editors that they need chroma keying technology in their NLEs," said Aharon Rabinowitz, Red Giant's head of marketing. "Many of them have expressed frustration, both with needing to leave their editor to do even basic compositing and with the loss of time that comes with it. We're really excited to help editors solve these challenges."

Primatte Keyer 5.1 takes the powerful chroma keying tools that have, up until now, only been available to Adobe After Effects users and puts them into the hands of editors. Primatte Keyer now supports After Effects, Premiere Pro, FCP X and Motion, giving all users of these host apps direct access to high-end tools for fast automatic keying, digital green screen relighting, and indispensable compositing and cleanup tools.
