Chroma Key

 


To achieve this technique you must abide by the following rules...

1. Ensure to have good lighting.

If you don't have good lighting, then it'll be difficult to get rid of the green background. However, you must also make sure to not over-expose the background as it'll also be hard to get rid of when editing.

2. Ensure your actor doesn't have blonde hair.

Green screen is hard to erase blond from; therefore, a blue screen is best used for blondes. The most two common screens are green and blue. 

3. When editing, you must resize the image.

The background chosen to replace the green screen must be adjusted in size to fit the screen. If not, it wouldn't look as convincing.
