Bluescreen with PaintshopPro

What we want to do...

Do you know the famous "Bluescreen" in Television? This is an effect where the newsreader sits in front of a blue curtain in the television studio. People from Television are able to take this piece of the picture and put pictures or films on it. We take a small part of the trick to mix two pictures.

We want to put these boys (on the left) on the black screen of this television to the right.

You can download the "real sized" picture by clicking on the pictures with the boys and the black computer screen. To download the whole tutorial click here.

How to do it...

Take a "before"-picture. Mine is a computer-monitor where the screen is blackened to mark it easier with the magic wand. This is our first step:

 

1. Mark the destination with the magic wand

Look onto the pictures for the values of Match Mode, Tolerance and Feather.

To do this job successfully I blackened the screen-window before working with this picture.

You can expand the selected areas with holding down the SHIFT key while selecting another piece of the picture with the magic wand.

 

2. Mark what to insert into the first selection

Mark a piece of the picture to insert. It should size approximately the size of the place where to insert it. The form of the selection does not matter. There will be on the piece of the picture on the "bluescreen" visibe.

 

3. Insert the selection into the selection of the destination

 

The picture tells you everything.

Why inventing jokes? Real life does a better job:
We are doing it this way for 40 years, why should we change it?
