Heres some of the shots from last weeks green screen work. Used the awesome Keylight plug-in on After Effects to strip out the green screen. The second still has a transparent background in AE ( jpgs don’t have this feature ) so you can use the background plate. Add in an explosion, light spill, screen shake and you have it. Almost sounds easy doesnt it ?

Fresh as a dustbin after the Zombie Fest weekender i spent the morning at De Montfort University green screen facility. DMU had kindly given us permission to use the equipment for free. I also had two great technicians, Mambia and Paul, to set up the system and tweak as we went along.

The M2 adaptor flips the image 180 degrees. This caused much head scratching as the live feed green screen monitor didn’t flip so the image was still upside down. After several minuets Mambia came back with a correctly orientated image – he’d turned the monitor upside down. A low tech solution for a high tech problem.

The shoot went fine with Dip and Jags walking towards the screen then throwing themselves back as if by an explosion. All we have to do know is create that explosion!
