After Effects 2026 keys Luma Key and Extract (Channel Luminance) on Rec. 601
weights of the working-space values: Key Out Darker / Extract Black Point at
65, 166 and 24 on pure red, green and blue keep red (601: 76, 709: 54) and
blue (29 / 18) and key out green (150 / 182) - Rec. 709, which EffectCraft
used, decides all three the other way. Case 904 E18 (Extract 30 / 220 /
softness 10 on grey and colour steps): 513 of 5184 grid points off (pure blue
kept at 231 in AE, keyed out in EC), now 0, max 0. CPU and GPU.

After Effects' Luma Key removes everything darker (or brighter) than Threshold
and ignores Tolerance for those two key types; Tolerance only sets the band of
Key Out Similar / Dissimilar. EffectCraft ramped the matte over Tolerance, so
case 719 (a 50 % grey, Key Out Darker, Threshold 140, Tolerance 20) kept about
80 % of the layer where AE keys it out completely.
Measured in AE 2026 on a vertical grey ramp (cases 812-814): Darker keys up to
level 139.9 and keeps 140.1 (EffectCraft now the same row); Similar keys levels
120.3-160.0; with Edge Thin 1 / Edge Feather 2.5 the matte rises over rows
591-596 (EffectCraft within 0.2 of AE's alpha there). CPU and GPU.
