[ANSWERED] How to superimpose a video image with background removed on a picture

[vjw]

I am live video capturing dancers and placing that video on a picture background.  I'm not able to get a clean video image to superimpose on the picture image.  In the past I've used a greenscreen to video capture movement and then can easily place it on an image, but I'd like to do it live.  I'm attaching a file with some of my simple experiments.  If anyone has done this, I'd appreciate some direction.

A greenscreen would be a good way to do it, but if you can have your performers stand in front of any solid-colored wall that isn't close to the color of their skin or clothing, you can use Chroma Key to remove the background.
