Re: Greenscreen Histogram
by Tim Kolb on Oct 22, 2009 at 5:53:36 pm

The idea with a green screen is the amount of difference to the foreground... 50 IRE or whatever number you pull out of a hat is best if whatever you're shooting is quite different from that...

If you're shooting something very light, a darker green will be easier to preserve grayscale...if the foreground object is darker, a brighter background will be easiest to key out.

Renting a waveform monitor would be the best because a horizontal histogram is difficult to use for this purpose.
