Using green screen

Music video 

   

To test out the use of green screen we decided to lip sync to a song. This allowed us to establish if when a person moved in front of a green screen, if the green screen would falter. 

What went well


Camera 

The camera angles used were good and allowed us a wie shot of the green screen 

Sound 

The sound was easy to add to the video. 

Lighting

The lighting in the area we filmed matched the lighting of the image on the green screen, and so they all looked part of the same image. 

Green screen

The screen was completely flat and so the image was perfect with no gaps at all.

Background image

The background image we used was animated and therefore looked very realistic. 

Improvements to make 

Sound 

The sound didn't quite match up. To fix this problem we could play the music whilst megan and ethan sang to make sure they were in time.

Camera 

The camera was slightly out of focus for the majority of the shots.

Green screen image

The character looked slightly out of place in comparison to the background which was a shot of the woods. 

Learning comment

From this I have learnt how to use the green screen. However, i now know that in order for the scene to look realistic the character in front of the green screen needs to suit the background image. E.G: If the background image is the desert, the character needs to look worn out.
