You can have a lot of fun with green screen photography. Special effects are created by using special equipment. Green screen is used as a background image for the purpose of erasing it once you are done and putting another image in its place.

The screen is everything when it comes to green screen photography, with the right screen you wont have any problems. Be sure to use the green screen appropriately because if it is used wrong your can ruin the entire picture. If you want options on the several ways you can get this image, read below to get a good idea.

If you live in a studio style apartment or have an art studio you can use green screen photography by painting a wall green and using that as the image. Just make sure you get the entire area otherwise it can ruin your photo. The green must be able to fill the entire image for the whole process to work.

If you choose you can also use fabric. Reflections and such things can ruin everything and using fabric will prevent these types of things. Fabrics can have certain issues to so be careful when you are selecting a fabric to use.

What type of lighting should be used with green screen photography?

The type of background you decide to use is very important but even more important is the lighting you choose to use. You will want to have a certain amount of light hitting your background when you use green screen photography. A certain amount of light will also need to hit the object that you are trying to photograph. It will be helpful to you if you take the person in the picture away from the background some. A shadow may be left if the person is too close to the green screen, and you don't want that.

Is there anything the people in the pictures can do to help?

In green screen photography you'll want the people you're photographing to be positioned a certain way. The best way to have them positioned is in a way where the screen fills the whole image. You'll also want to make sure they do not wear anything that might interfere with getting the desired shot. So it might be good to instruct them before you take the picture.

What can I do after I've taken a good picture?

You can do many different things once you have gotten the shot you want. You can use whatever software to fill background image that you have on your computer to fill the background image with anything you want. The software you are using will only come with certain backgrounds so if you want something different you will need to upload some. This will allow you to have many more possibilities. You never know what background image you might come up with when using this type of photography
