Green Screen Workshop

When it comes to a green-screen, the process is quite simple. You film your subjects standing in front of a green sheet hung upon the wall. After filming what you need, capture your work into Premiere Pro., and save what you need. You could always edit the green screen on Premiere, but the class has come to learn if you edit it from Adobe After Effects, you're going to get a much cleaner edit. It's easier to get a better looking green-screen edit. Now, you have to be careful with green-screens. Definately, be wise on what you wear. Wearing bright colors and things that can possibly blend into the green sheet should be avoided. I noticed that black, darker colors won't be confused for the green when editing. Also, your lighting is extremely important to the film. You're going to want a lot of lighting, from three angles. Two lights on either side of you, and one from behind. This prevents any shadows from showing on the screen, which has proven to be extremely difficult to work with. Overall, I believe we did well on our video using what we had to work with.
