One of the most popular rentals in Los Angeles right now is the green screenstudio. I have owned a green screen and white cyc studio for years and I have worked as a gaffer and cinematographer lighting and shooting on these types of cycloramas for even longer. Clients are always asking advice about shooting on a green screen and I’m always willing to do what I can to help them out and give them a quick and easy solution to whatever their dilemma is. People often have questions about markers and tracking so here are a few tips I have for anyone who is interested in some tricks I’ve used on set before.
For starters it is usually a good idea to use yellow markers when using a green screen. If you look at the red channel you can see the high contrast difference between the screen and the yellow markers, which will be beneficial for tracking. If you view the green channel you will see that the yellow markers can easily be keyed out and you wont have to work so hard removing each marker by hand. Avery makes the round adhesive stickers in multiple colors which can come in handy if you are working with a screen other than green. These stickers are also very easy to carry around in your set bag. I recommend not just having markers along the back wall of your screen. It makes for a very flat look and could easily be remedied with the addition of a few markers at different distances away from the camera. It’s a good 3D solution. Another option for tracking is to use newspaper. This is particularly good for larger green screen studio Los Angeles. The newspaper makes a really great tracking pattern because of how intricate the print is on it. The green screen I own at Atomic Studios, is 25ft by 25 ft, eventually we intend on having an even larger hard green cyclorama. This size screen can be ideal for the newspaper to be user for tracking. You just lay all the newspaper down away from the non-repeating and keying area. Your post team will thank you for keeping them in focus because it will make their jobs a lot easier. It really isn’t a rule on set one way or the other. Some shoot require the markers in focus others will go smoother if you keep the background out of focus. It’s really a technical call, but if the markers are definitely going to be needed for tracking, do your post team a favor and keep them as in focus as you can. It’s pretty easy to replace a black screen in post. Most of the time people cover up the gray screen of the off unit with green or blue cloth or paper. I don’t know why more people don’t just shoot with the unit turned off. If you shoot without the green or blue cover you are more likely to get realistic reflections in the television, which can be an asset to your production. A lot of times you can get tracks off of the corners of the screen or some details in television set. You can do this just as easy if not easier then using the blue or green cover. The one problem you may run across is what you are picking up in the reflection. Obviously, you don’t want to see the camera or crew members and if the actors are reflecting too much in the screen then that can be distracting and you may want to just cover it and fake the reflections later. Sometimes it can be difficult to catch what is in the reflection just by looking at the monitor or camera screen.
Renting a Green Screen studio Los Angeles can really benefit your production. Most studios offer great deals and can even give you a price quote on a pre-lit green screen. At Atomic Studios we charge very little for pre-lighting the green screen and we supply you with additional lights, just in case.
