If you are trying to fix an object's edge, by bringing back its original color, then this tool is perfect for you! DespillToColor is designed to work best with a specific user defined screen color and therefore a good local solution for certain areas of your plate.

Usage:

  • Pick a blue/greenscreen color - set or pick a target color.
  • 'balance' controls how much red tones are being affected by the despill operation opposed to blue and green tones.
  • Increasing the 'gain' will affect a wider range of colors, like the finetune knob in DespillMadness.
  • 'erode' and 'falloff' sometimes work well for increasing the effect in defocussed areas. I usually go for ramping up the 'gain' OR the 'erode', rarely both.

(For testing I recommend blurring these jpegs a little to get rid of compression artefacts.)
