Re: HMI and Green screen
by Michael Palmer on Jul 7, 2009 at 4:02:02 am

"the fact that it's lit over or under doesn't seem to be the primary issue...the key factor is that it's different...over or under."

I couldn't agree more, if they have the room to separate the green from the subject.

However I believe it is much safer for me when i'm offering advice to the masses to keep the green screen lighting 1.0-1.5 stops lower than the key because I can't assume their situation or skill level to see light, putting them at risk of creating a moster of green bounce that will contaminate their subject.

I also prefer HMI lights and 5600k white balance for green screen work.

Good Luck
Michael Palmer
