Green Screen Lighting Photography   by Angel Wood

What is green screen lighting photography?

It is a kind of technologically advanced form of picture making which is used by the photographers in order to enhance the visual effects on the images. It is a process in which the background of the subject is replaced by any other desirable image in a photograph. All this is accomplished by the video editing tools. A photographer should select high quality video editing tool in order to edit the background image the subject with ease as well as convenience. These tools are the ones that can surround your subject with imaginary and distinct images surrounding other tools.

How can you perform this sort of picture making?

A green screen lighting picture making requires specific set of conditions. You need a high quality material as a background cloth against which you would be placing the subject to photograph. Usually for this purpose, a person can make use of a muslin material as a background cloth as it does not get creased or crimpled easily. You should also keep in mind to use a washed or spotless cloth otherwise it might create a problem in masking. Select a green or blue shaded cloth that is sensitive to the sensors in the camera. Above all, these two shades are farthest from human skin tone and especially green shaded cloth is the farthest one. Use high quality lighting system in order to avoid all sorts of shadows on the skin or clothes of the subject and even remove shadows at the background. There are flood lights available in the market that has lights covered with butterfly sheet of paper. One can easily make use of these lights to illuminate the studio. You can make your subject enact a scene or strike a pose as desirable. Select a video editing computer program and edit the background to place the subject from studio to any other world.
