What you need to know for shooting on Green Screen

Green screens are an invaluable tool in video production, allowing us to transport you to virtually any location. Whether you're looking to appear in a bustling cityscape or a serene mountaintop, the green screen makes it possible. To ensure your green screen experience is seamless and successful, here's what you need to know:

What to Wear

When filming against a green screen, avoid wearing anything green or close to it, such as teal or lime green. These colors can blend with the green screen, causing parts of your outfit to disappear. Instead, opt for solid colors that contrast with green, such as blues, reds, or purples. Avoid shiny or reflective fabrics, as they can create unwanted glare and reflections. Additionally please avoid any see-through material, the green screen won’t be able to be taken out from anything transparent. Do you know?

What to Expect Before Filming:

Our team will guide you through the process. You'll stand in front of the green screen, and we'll explain the actions you need to perform. It's essential to follow these instructions carefully to ensure the best results. Don't worry if you're unsure – our team is here to help you every step of the way. Before we start shooting, it will help us get the best quality, if we decide what background we are adding before the filming day. This way we can ensure the lighting and image match the background.

What Can't Be Done on a Green Screen:

While green screens are incredibly versatile, there are some limitations to keep in mind. For example, interacting with physical objects that aren't green screened in can be challenging. If your scene involves complex movements or quick moving actions, we may need to use other techniques to achieve the desired effect. Also adding camera movement adds a certain level of complexity that can be achieved, but will require more time and cost. For easiest and fastest turn around times having a static camera is best.

In conclusion, green screens offer endless possibilities for your video production needs. By following these guidelines, you'll help us create a stunning final product that exceeds your expectations. We look forward to bringing your vision to life!
