    I’m curious, do you ever use green screen in your workflow?

      Any suggestions which green screen to buy from amazon?

      Yes. Love it. I use it with my komodo. I shoot with HQ and its really easy to pull in resolve. I used to have to comp my old shots at work many a year ago in my vfx days so the new tools are super!

    Thanks Garrett, nice video. I've been doing green screen work for more than 20 yrs and still go back and forth on brightness of the screen. A lot of notable professionals have given differing opinions on ratio of talent to screen brightness and total brightness. People have said, if you're using Keylight, the green should be 2-stops below the talent. I've heard many people advocate for 40-50 IRE. Still yet, if you work with scopes, you'll see on the vectorscope that the chroma component on a green screen is usually the strongest at around 75 IRE... so this means you're getting your deepest color sat and purest color here. These numbers are generally REC709 / video style shoots, not Log / film style. I can vouch for Keylight in After Effects working just fine with the green around 50%, but we've been working with Ultimatte 12 recently and it absolutely seems to prefer very bright green, upwards of 75% for the best performance. The higher the saturation the better. So what's the best green screen background brightness? Of course it probably depends on which keyer and your process, but curious what others here prefer.
    You mentioned it but want to reaffirm... leveling up your greenscreen shots require a lot of light. We shoot / rate our camera at the lowest ISO to reduce noise (and turn noise reduction in-camera off because it can mess with your edges), which is key for a clean key (sorry for the pun). Add light. We shutter up to about 90 degrees to reduce motion blue for cleaner edges. Add more light. We shoot a smaller aperture to optimize both lens performance and depth of field. Add even more light.
    A few more tips I like. Most camera sensors are cleaner (less noise) at 6500K than at 3200K so we always light daylight for chroma key. Green background paper is inferior to a quality green fabric in color quality, which is also not as good as a solid wall with Rosco Chroma Green paint. And if you want to shoot bluescreen instead of green, that chroma key blue color can take a lot more light to get to the brightness you want because it just really sucks up light like a sponge.

      can we even go under 90 degree a little more to get even less motion blur. if I have enough light. or just 90 degree is the limit

    Great video Garrett! I film on greenscreen from time to time, and after watching this video I realized I've been doing some things wrong. This is by far the best green screen tutorial I have ever seen.

      Hey. You mention the light has to be very bright. What would be the minimum watt for a 3x3meter green screen? If it can be calculated in that way? :-) I just got the Screen, waiting for 2 35x160cm softboxes but not sure my 2 x slw60 watt will do the jub

    • @garrettsammons

      @thomaswindfeld728 60w would be really tough to adequately light both the screen and your subject. I would think two 200w fixtures for your screen, then whatever you need to light your foreground would give you enough to play with. You want to focus on even, bright lighting for your background.

    • @thomaswindfeld728
      @thomaswindfeld728 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@garrettsammons thank you so much for replying. The 60 W should be for the green screen only.. additionally, I have 150 W and an Amran 300 RGB. So do you think the 60 Ws would be enough for lighting the green screen?? Thanks again.;)

    Isn't the way to refer to aperture is wide/narrow or opened/closed instead of ''longer'?
