Particulars On Using Or Building A Green Screen Studio
A green screen studio is used in many films today, particularly for certain types of special effects. Green screen studios can be rented and all should include technical individuals that make sure everything is working properly.
You will need someone that understands how a green screen works as there is a lot too it as the lighting is very important. You may find that renting a green screen studio is less expensive than building your own depending on your need.
Green screen is used to mix two different images together. The green color is used as it is preferred by film makers though other colors can be used. Unlike other colors green does not need as much light as other colors. However the lighting of the studio is extremely important and you need the correct equipment such as the chroma key technology.
If you are building your own green screen then you need to be picky about the type of green material you chose. Opaque green material that reflects as little light as possible is the best, though all material will reflect a small amount of light. Using a green screen background is much more sensitive than using a normal background so you want to take the time to get the perfect material.
Lighter green material is much better then darker green and you want to go as bright as you can. However there is a fine line between yellow and green and you don't want the green to be confused with yellow. If you cannot decide if the color is yellow or green then you shouldn't use it. This will cause problems with post editing.
If your eye is confused about the color then you can bet that the camera and computer will be confused about the color. Having the wrong color background can be a big pain in the post editing process.
