There are plenty of quick and easy options to get started with green screen. The main drawback is that they’re not very big, so your range of motion might be limited in front of it. Foldable pop-upĪ foldable green screen pop-up is a great option for those on a budget, plus it’s portable and has little to no wrinkles. But if you choose to go this route, use a low-sheen paint to reduce reflection/glare/shadow. Painting a wall green means there’s no chance for wrinkles, but it’s not always feasible to paint a wall in your office or home. Why are we putting so much emphasis on wrinkles? While they’re not the end of the world post-production, they can make it more difficult to use the chroma key the first time around. A fabric backdrop, on the other hand, will likely come folded and need to be ironed out. Paper can be rolled up to avoid wrinkling, although once it gets wrinkled (during travel, for example), there’s no reversing it. When it comes to paper vs fabric, both have their advantages and disadvantages. The cost varies depending on size, but for small production, you can easily get started with less than $100. Green fabric and green paper are both options to consider for your chroma key backdrop. So what are your options when choosing a green or blue background for your project? Fabric or paper Keep in mind with WeVideo, you can use the chroma key tool to remove any color you’d like. However, in instances where the subject is green, blue is a safe option.

Green and blue tend to be the most common colors used for chroma keying because they’re opposite of our natural skin tones and hair color. Simply put, green screens are green because people are not green. The best part? Green screens are relatively affordable and easy to set up! Why should I use green screen? You’ll still appear like you’re at the office, but the overall sound quality will improve. By simply taking a picture of your office environment, you can later digitally insert that as your background, even if you choose to film from your home instead. However, after trying to film you realize there’s a lot of background noise or too much foot traffic, affecting the quality of your video. Let’s say, for example, that you want to film in your office and use it as your background. It also helps you control factors that would otherwise be unpredictable if you shot on location-things like lighting, weather and sound. Not everyone has a film studio at their disposal, but with a green screen, you can take your “studio” anywhere. Green screen is great for providing visual consistency. Post-production chroma key What is green screen? In this blog, we'll go over all things green screen. While most of us associate green screens with explosions or action scenes we see in movies, there are plenty of advantages of using green screens for your business, too. In post-production, this is also known as using the chroma key. A green screen is a powerful (and super cool) visual effect that can take your story… well, just about anywhere! By filming in front of a green screen, you can later swap in any digital background of your choice. ![]()
