Re: Another greenscreen (paint) question
by Steve Wargo on Mar 17, 2006 at 8:10:18 am

We have used a lot of different greens and all very successful. Chrome Key green is made for "Ultimatte" machines and that box looks for a particular color with a lot of yellow in it.

Do this: Go to your local Art Supply Store and find their Foam Core cards. They come in lots of colors including a bright green, about 18" x 24" and around $5. Test this green with your camera. After you're completely amazed at how well it works, take the card to a paint store and have them match the color. A gallon flat washable paint is around $17 to $20.

Light your background at 40%, caucasion skin at 70%, keep your subject 12' away from the wall, side light them with a touch of magenta.

Simple stuff.
