    Best way to chroma key a greenscreen without a plugin effect

    davidbeisner2010 Community Member

      I've got several hundred greenscreen photos of athletes at the school where I work, and I need to put them on a custom background. I've seen lots of recommendations for chroma key plugins, but don't have any and don't have budget to buy any. I've tried using the Select: Color Range command, and found it works pretty well for the guys, but it falls apart when we get in close around the girls' hair...

       

      What's the best way to utilize the controls within Photoshop Extended CS5 to chroma key a greenscreen out of an image (working with RAW files) so I can put a new background in?
