Hi, (sorry for my english)
i have a project that i must do chromakey so people are in car and background is greenScreen, i have no problem on Chromakey but i want Reflects Environment be on car's Glass(Fornt) so viewer can't believe these are chromakey.
Relfects are my goal, real reflects, whatever is in real car movement...

Please help, i am so confused...:D

You'd probably need a 3D program to create the fake windshield with irts reflections. A simple way to fake this type of stuff using a plane with displacement e. g. Mesh Warp and use it in Overlay or Screen mode on top of your footage. The motion of the environment could be faked by using Motion Tile before you are dispalceing the layer.

Other way...
Mask the reflected layer for each window of the car.
(make a mask of the window)
then flip it so it becomes the reflection.
(pre-comp the reflection if you want)
distort the image using scale and/or distort.
slight gradient mask to equal sunlight or whatever.
pre-comp
and use screen blend...

should work fine
