GREEN+BLUE SCREEN TUTORIAL

I wanted to let all of you know that I just posted a new tutorial. In this new video I explain the proper way to setup and light your next special effects production that requires a blue or green screen.

Why would you want to film anything on a blue screen?
So that you can cut out the subject and place it in any environment you want. I do think that special effects are over used by many people since the technology has gotten so cheap... so if you can film something for real then do it that way. Only when you really don't have a way of doing a shot, should you then attempt to do it as an effect.

Below is a diagram of the whole setup. Look it over and then watch the video. Email me if you have any questions. Enjoy!

We're busy working here at the TLA Productions headquaters. It's been really hectic over the last two weeks as we've got a big and complicated music video shoot coming up this weekend of May 1st. The whole video is basickly one giant special effect. All the live action elements are shot on a blue screen and will later be composited and edited with CG element.

I'm real excited about the concept for the video, and should also give me a chance to show you guys a lot of behind the scenes and new tutorials on shooting special effects sequences. Stayed tooned for more next week!
