It is indeed super simple! You could just use the new video switcher template compound that’s included with the latest version of Aximmetry. It basically turns Aximmetry into a full video switching software, including a keyer on each input.

You could also build something custom yourself with a few Switch Video modules to switch between backgrounds, the Keyer_All compound for the camera inputs and use Blender modules for compositing. You can also use the LightWrap compound instead of the Blender module to get a more realistic blend between foreground and background. You could also add in the Adjuster Multi compounds for color adjustments (after the keyer), Color mapper modules for LUT processing, Placers for scaling and framing both background and foreground and Soft Croppers for removing anything that shouldn’t be included in the keyed foreground. Then you could map the essential controls to a more user friendly Control Board for use during actual productions.

The true power of Aximmetry lies in the ability to build and customize your own setups that match your specific needs. Starting from the included compounds and modules, it’s easy and fun to build something unique and it’s very rare to run into any limitations on what you can accomplish.

Thank you so much for your help! Your advice has been incredibly valuable in helping me set up the green screen workflow in Aximmetry. I really appreciate you taking the time to provide such detailed guidance—it’s made things much clearer for me.

I do have one additional question: does the Video Switcher Template include a light wrap feature? I think adding a light wrap would help blend the keyed talent into the background more naturally. If it’s not included in the template, do you think it’s better for me to create a custom layout using the LightWrap compound? I’m using the latest version of Aximmetry but am still pretty new to the program, so I’d appreciate any tips for setting that up effectively.

Thanks again for all your help so far—I really appreciate it!

I haven’t worked with the Video Switcher Template myself yet, but it should be easy enough to modify it to include the LightWrap module. First unlink the compound so that you don’t edit the original one and then locate the specific Blender module inside of it where the foreground is added on top of the background. Then you can just replace it with the LightWrap compound (I think it’s the LightWrap Layer one, but not sure) and add the additional LightWrap controls to the control board. When you’re happy with the modifications, save the modified Video Switcher compound as a new custom compound.
