HOW CHROMA KEY WORKS:
With the right background color and lighting, you can add just about any photo or video background to just about any photo or video subject. Technically, what that means is that the chroma color is consistent, and the lighting is uniform. Most photo compositing software will have no trouble targeting the chroma color and replace it with whatever image you wish. That’s why, as part of our manufacturing quality control, we ensure that the chroma color is completely flat and uniform. The lighting part is up to the videographer/photographer.
We’ve outlined the basic steps for chromakey usage:
STEP 1: Light up your background. Work for consistent even coverage so that there’s no shadows, and no hotspots.
STEP 3: Use your compositing software to “key” the framed area. Most software give you tools to fine-tune the image.
STEP 2: Frame the shot: give your subject plenty space so that you have room to blend in your new background.
STEP 4: Replace the chroma background with the background image you want, and publish to whatever medium you wish.
WHICH IS BEST: GREEN OR BLUE?
There are a lot of technical reasons for choosing either color. The fact is, the right color for a chroma key shot depends mostly on two main issues: If you have green in your shot, choose a blue chroma color. Conversely, if you have blue in your shot, use a green background. Most professional videographers and photographers will have both types available in-studio. A critical note about chroma green: this color is twice as reflective as chroma blue. That’s why most people use chroma green because it takes so little lighting to get good results. But all that reflectivity comes at a cost. If you don’t have good background-to-subject separation (about 2′ to 3′ from the backdrop to the back of the subject), chroma green can give your subject an unwanted green hue.
