Proactive uses of green screen technology

With all the latest video editing software, archiving green screen effects is far easier. When going back a few years, its use was limited to professional film studios because effects were quite expensive to achieve. However today with abundance of technology, green screen special effects have become the mainstream in entertainment and corporate industries. It’s important to use the right software that supports such feature while creating unique videos.

Both, blue and green screen filming is used to alter background of videos. A unique colour as background in the scene is applied and with smart computer software, you can easily isolate this shade in actual videos; making them transparent. One can easily replace this transparent effect with a still image or any other footage. Green screen is quite lucrative in production that would be very expensive or impossible to film otherwise.

Still photography or video footage is used as an alternate source but you’ve to be careful with colour selection and balanced lighting for flawless results. Following the process accurately produce high quality and realistic effects. The best feature is creating such background effects that are impossible in real such as putting pyramids even if you’re on other side of the world.
