Today, my first hint that everyone seems to want to know is how to do a green screen.
Well, it really is quite easy to do. First you need to get ahold of a Green Screen or Blue Screen Material. You can go professional or cheap. I have read that several people went to their local Joann Fabrics and bought some “Green Screen” Material and used it. Depending on the cloth density this should work. The heavier the fabric the better. I still recommend picking up what some would call a Professional Green Screen. Here is a link to What Amazon Sells -Green Screen. Don’t Forget to add a few lights to make sure the background is fully and evenly lit. This really is the most important step. Without the even lighting the software will have a hard time getting rid of the Chroma Key Color you selected. Remember you don’t have to go expensive with these lights. You can run down to the local hardware store and pick up a couple of good silver reflectors and a few good quality lights to light this background. Well enough of the writing - on to the videos.
