Color Correcting Question

I'm using a chroma green backdrop behind my subject and she's wearing a teal bracelet. When I go to "key" it, the teal bracelet becomes a dull grayish blue. I know this is because there's a green hue within the bracelet so i attempt to color correct the bracelet with the eyedropper. The problem here being that I can't get the exact teal hue that the bracelet originally was.
Is there another way to color correct so that I can get the exact teal hue that I'm looking for? I know it's a general "no, no" to use any shade of green in front of a green screen but I work for a jewelry company and a lot of our items have green in them. Is there any way around this??

Thanks!

Get a chroma-key blue screen.


You could duplicate the clip on top of itself, don't key the top one, only mask it out so only the bracelet shows. Could be easier done in Motion, also.

You can isolate / exclude the bracelet using a window and keyframe it.

Now that Slice X can keyframe mask shape control points, that's what I'd use.
