So I've got the basic hang of Green Screen/ChromaKey in FCPX - it is delightful to use. I would like to now take the next step and have the camera move and then also have the background change in perspective related to the foreground talent.

I've seen that this technique involves putting what appear to be tracking markers directly on the green screen?

What would the must straight-forward way to achieving such an effect directly in FCPX? I also have Coremelt TrackX/SliceX. I assume I'll also need hi res footage for the background, high enough that it can be scaled much larger than the project.

gracias!

Match Move in Motion does a fantastic job of this. There is even a lesson on this very thing in the "Apple Pro Training Series: Motion 5" book.

Hi merc,

Looks like you can achieve fantastic results with Track X and Slice X: vimeo.com/96885238

To create long background images that will cover the track, you could stitch together a number of still images:
