Type your answer here... A garbage mask is general term used for describing the removal of unwanted areas of footage. They are just simple mask that are loosely placed around objects to remove the "garbage" while leaving the fine details to still be removed.

This term is most commonly used in green screening. An example would be if you filmed an actor in front of a green screen and captured some of the room surrounding the green screen. You would use a "garbage mask" to remove the area around the green screen and then use a color key to remove the rest of the green from behind the actor.
