Hi,
Does anyone on the list know anything about using green screen for
stills rather than moving image?
I have a load of work coming up in schools, involving shooting kids
dressed up in period costume, in a studio set-up against a plain
backdrop, to be cut out and dropped into a (previously shot)
historically appropriate background. I'm unsure what the easiest
backdrop to use would be...I had planned to just use a white or grey
backdrop, for ease of cut out, but it occurred to me that a green screen
might actually easier. I know green screen (and whichever accompanying
software you use) is meant for moving image, rather than stills, but
wondered if you could apply it to stills, and save a file (preferably a
jpg) with the background already cut out and deleted. And if so, what
software do I need, or should I just use photoshop?
Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
Jonathan.
