Green screen photography is a really popular type of event photography that we do here at Orange. During the holiday season, many of our clients ask for green screen photography which entails shooting against a chroma-key backdrop. Then the background is dropped out digitally and the image is then put onto whatever other image/scene you want. At one of our Saturday evening parties, our client had us shoot several different scenes from around the world. Here’s three photos showing how green screen photography is done.
Step 1 – take the shot against the chroma key background:
Step 2 – using software, drop out the background and put the people by themselves into the new scene:
(Note: this was our very first test shot so usually it’s a bit cleaner)
Step 3 – create the final image:
Here’s Kasey and Aubrey in front of the Taj Mahal!
I seen this at parties and there is always a line all night. People love and have fun doing it.
what software did u use to cut off the images?
We use Express Digital’s Digital Darkroom mostly. There are some other options we’ve been testing out of late as well, but primarily use Digital Darkroom since it’s very fast.
