Live camera - fading the black color

Hey,
I was wondering if there is any way to set the alpha of the black colour on one layer to 0% ?

I looking forward to use my webcam to set my face on stage, but i would like to cut the black background i'd get (as i would set light on my face only). This would make my face float over stuff i put on lower layers.


I'm sorry if there were already such questions, i'm not smart enough to find the answer probably :(



cheers

you need to use lumakey
which is one of the 'front end' effects in M8 and is right there in the control panel
