    subject cutout

    Example session with this skill installed

    I have a video of me on a green screen (media_123) and a background of a forest (media_456). Put me in the forest, fix the green fringe, and make it look natural.

    • Read your context and instructions
    • Compiled the subject cutout

    I have composited the green screen footage onto the forest background. I placed the subject on track V2 and the background on V1, applied chroma keying with spill suppression, and added a slight blur to the forest to create depth of field. I also added a contact shadow to help ground the subject.

    Next steps

    1. Review the scale in the FableCut preview to ensure your feet align with the forest floor.
    2. If the green fringe is still visible, I can increase the chromaSoftness by 5.
    3. Click Export in the browser to render the final composite.

    About this skill

    The problem

    Manual background removal and compositing are tedious, requiring frame-by-frame masking or complex shader adjustments. AI background removal often fails on lighting and scale, leaving subjects looking like flat stickers pasted onto a plate.

    What it does

    • Executes chroma keying for green or blue screens using precise hex-code sampling and tolerance controls.
    • Triggers AI-based person segmentation for background removal without a physical screen.
    • Automates the layering logic by placing subjects on higher tracks and backgrounds on V1.
    • Calculates lighting, temperature, and scale adjustments to match the subject to the new environment.
    • Generates contact shadows by duplicating masked subjects to anchor them to the background.

    Frameworks & tools

    FableCut MCP tools, MediaPipe (for person segmentation).

    Why this beats prompting it yourself

    Basic prompts forget technical details like spill suppression, room tone removal, and Z-axis layering. This skill implements specific video editing heuristics, such as using V1 for backgrounds and applying blur to plates rather than subjects to maintain depth of field.

    Use cases

    • Swapping a webcam background for a cinematic office environment.
    • Keying out green screen studio footage for professional corporate videos.
    • Applying AI background removal for social media clips without using a physical screen.
    • Creating realistic composites with depth of field and contact shadows.

    Known limitations

    AI background removal only supports people. Generative fill for object removal is not supported. Internet access is required for the first run of the AI segmentation model.
