Product Information

I don’t think they’re worth the trouble (compared to the YouTube green screen kits or just filming outside). But if you’re in a pinch budget-wise, or have some available to you, you know they’re an option now. The Olafus Work Light is LED-generated, therefore, it doesn’t generate as much heat and is safer to use. Image via Olafus. The Neewer Green Screen Kit is ideal if you're looking for an encompassing entry point that won't break the bank. That's because this bundle includes not only a green screen and stand, along with mall mounting options, but also a set of studio lights and reflectors meaning you won't have to stress much about getting the lighting right. OK, now that we know a bit about lighting in a studio, let’s look at a few options for lighting in different scenarios. Filming Outside From giant cyclorama sets to full-body green-screen suits, most scenes in these films come to life in post-production with the help of advanced green screen techniques.

Be prepared to iron or steam out any wrinkles and creases on the fabric. It must be completely smooth and wrinkle-free to ensure the best key possible.Why it made the cut: Mount this greenscreen behind your streaming rig and you’ll never have to worry about putting it away.

Filming in mid-day will provide plenty of light, and the shadows should fall below your subject, not on the green screen. Use your free light source by setting your pop-up green screen outside.

The more you’re immersed in the world of lighting and keying, the more you gain an understanding of what you need. You don't have much space: If room is a concern for you then we recommend one of the collapsible or pop-up options in our list. Most of Hollywood’s big-budget action, fantasy, and sci-fi films rely on the humble green screen (although that’s starting to change thanks to the use of virtual production). However, Hollywood green screens are anything but humble.You're working with limited funds: The Razer Blue Screen is one of the most expensive options out now, so if it's outside of your budget then one of our other choices may be a better fit. As you browse for fabric, keep an eye out for the type of material. Heavy fabric will hang nicely and provide solid coverage. But it’ll also be more prone to creasing and wrinkles. Light, stretchy fabrics resist wrinkles well, but they might not offer the same coverage as heavier materials. If you have a free-standing flat or a spare wall available, you can paint it green or blue to achieve an easy DIY green screen. This is also a viable option for floors so that you can create an entire green screen set. The most common solution for cheap lighting is construction work lights. You’ve probably seen these before. They’re usually dual lights mounted on a bright orange stand.
