  • I guess another tip is: Make sure the activity of the subject matches the background.

    2:22 - I had to laugh a little watching her flip through a magazine with the beach and sunset to her back. ;)

    I've been watching your videos... nice!

  • @VideoMenu A good tip! XD Thanks for watching!

  • what's the intensity of the lights?

  • Check out our video "Green Screen Tutorial: How to Light A Green Screen." The two links listed in the description to this clip contain a lot of good info as well. Hope they help! Cheers.

  • @ScottMatthewSullivan ok thanks

  • @dweetyboy I believe that is true.

  • Another green screen mistake : Forgetting to backlight your subject. Green highlights appear arround the subject that reflect off of the green screen when subject is not properly backlit.

  • how much was your greenscreen and where did you get it?

  • The rim of the subject seems to have a line around it that gives away the existence of a green screen why is that and how do i get rid of that?

  • the matched lighting wasnt much improved... Try lighting behind the green screen?

  • @thechris44 The light on the green screen does not light the actor. This means that the light is behind the actor making the actor very dark. Other lights are used to light the actor.

  • This guy is awesome.
