Re: Tricky Green Screen Shoot Requires Your Brain Power

For a 360 view, you could use a trick that Robert Rodriguez has used in his films.

Set up your green screen so it completely covers the frame, and have your actor in front of it, standing on a rotating stool (piano stool, or office chair with no backing or arms, etc.). Now simply have the stool rotate while he/she is on it, and move the camera however you like, making sure you do not film the stool.

Now in post, simple animate the environment so it matches his movement, and there you go! Simulated camera movement!
