Technical Tutorial-Green Screen


This short clip above demonstrates my groups current ability in using the green screen and editing it in final cut. To start off with we film a video clip in-front of the green screen, by doing this we create a background with solid colour (namely green.) We then import this into Final Cut, then we can apply a different background to our clip, we do this by applying the Chroma Key to the shot. Basically this eliminates all of one colour, we simply tell it to get rid of a particular shade of green and then its gone. The empty space is then replaced by whatever is in the shot below in this case a city scape.

This could be useful in our video in that we could easily replace a boring dull background with something more relevant to our given genre (soul.) However this could be less useful for our video as the background that we insert will never be quite 100% believable, also as our artist is meant to be non-commercial adding to much editing could take away from this image.
