Masking

Hi

I want to separate the bright sky from the dark landscape to show the sky darker and the landscape without haze.

I tried keying, but no success
Which track has to be keyed with what key? (Chroma, lightness?)
Where do I place the background video?

Adobe Premiere elements 2019 latest version

W10 64, nivida geoforce 3060, 16 GB

video (small version)

video.mov

Thank you

Keying out the sky is only going to work if the sky is a smooth, even color of blue with no clouds.

Thanks - that's what I was afraid of.

Do you see another possibility to separate dark from lightful parts or is this only possible in pro?

Have you tried the Shadow/Highlight effect? It's designed to help correct these high contrast situations.

Beyond that, you'll probably need to work with a more advanced program, like After Effects, to do this kind of re-compositing.

Note:

The same advice (After Effects) he has already gotten in his double thread in the German Forum (was linked in the first post by moderator)
