Before our news anchor came down, we ran some tests to make sure that the green screen room was properly lit, making it easy for us to key out the green during the edit.
 |
| we had two lights, lighting up the green screen, and the third light bouncing off of the white ceiling to diffuse the light, as aiming it directly at our 'actor' caused a harsh shadow on the green screen which would make it hard to key out in the edit! |
 |
| Because there was light bursting through the blinds, We had to stand close to the side of the camera to avoid the glare shining off the glass and reflecting through the lens |
 |
| Because the room was a small, in order to create distance between the BG lights and not cause any shadows, we had to separate the 'actor' from the GS backdrop However, in doing this we had to film |
 |
| This was the glare that was coming from the window behind the the production room. This is the camera outside of the production room, in which we filmed through the window so that we had more space to work with. Doing this however meant that we would have to use a wireless mic to get audio. |
Here is our test shot.
