How To Effectively Light Your Green Screen

[@COGSCNY]

keeping in mind that this was made back in 2011 vid quality may have been bad but the points he made were solid and valid even today

[@sarajeanlapitan]

Thank you!!! This was the only tutorial that explained WHY you need to do each step instead of just saying "put a light here or there"

[@iCareStudioTM]

We normally use green screens with qualities that looks like so proffesional but the you teach the begginners are so wounderful and helpful we are proud of you keep on doing such god videos.

[@49Macman]

Sir! This is one of the most useful KZbin tutorials I've seen on this subject. Thank You.

[@AdamHartGaming]

that intro was HILARIOUS

[@hoTodi]

Thx for that Video. Just bought 5 new theater lights to get my studio enhanced. Was looking for a good video, showing me how i have to position my lights for decent results. So time to play with wirecast maybe :)

[@Bwucks]

this is one of the better lighting tutorials for green screening, back to the shop I go Cheers

[@Braddds]

the beginning should be in a cringe compilation

[@eduardm4988]

What is a cringe?

[@Braddds]

look it up

[@eduardm4988]

QWAZERR I did. It said to move away from something in a fearful way. You are scared?

[@FerretPercussion]

your name rearranged is "Rim Dude AR" Are you located in Arkansas?

[@eduardm4988]

FerretPercussion No...

[@singingzoo]

Thanks for this professional video. Yes, that intro was a little corny but, overall, this was much more helpful than the other things I've been able to find on YT about greenscreening.

[@GTTUPod]

I ALMOST HAD A HEART ATTACK I THOUGHT YOU WERE IN REAL COLD DANGER!

[@tecnopcsistemas]

muy interesante, me agrada la explicación que das y me parece muy útil. Ya me puse a rearmar mi pantalla verde con tus recomendaciones :)

[@gerrardmbingu6201]

[@befoul77]

Easy video to understand even without visual examples. Thank you :)

[@famebhopal]

great tute.........thanx a ton Matt

[@Atamaii]

I am not sure how you can keep a fill light off the green screen, if you have it set in front of the subject, like you have in the diagram. I like that stage scaffolding, wish I could find some locally

[@johnnybombay8076]

Well done, Matt! Very helpful and succinct.

[@maverick9605]

Awesome guidelines! Thank you for a professional video!

[@doctari1061]

FINALLY!!! A decently intelligent tutorial on green screen lighting. The first 50 I watched were shit. Thanks Matt. Make more movies please. It seems everyone claims to know what they're talking about and don't, but you actually do. I don't pass out compliments very often, but you get one for this video. Cheers

[@anthonyscarafiotti4688]

Very cool and easy to follow. Thank you.

[@i_youtube_]

Really great tutorial !! Thanks !

[@TheHandOfFear]

The instant I saw that horrific key at the start of the video, I just couldn't take his advice serious. That key was beyond amateur.

[@ChevaughnHibbert]

+TheHandOfFear Not even framed properly, it's really distracting. Also, I think it's the reflection from the screen, blending with his back light... he should have been further away from the screen, that was my problem the first time I set up green screen couple years ago.

[@TheHandOfFear]

+Chevaughn Hibbert It takes practice, and very few probably got it right the first time, but you shouldn't claim to know what you are doing and try to teach others if you still can't do better than a fuzzy edge. He needs to be watching other people's videos for advice, not making his own.

great video. Very clear and straight to the point

[@JB-lv8bn]

Thanks Man! Great Video!

[@25GARCE]

Please what model of led lights are you using?

[@WirecastTube]

Getting wrinkles out can be tricky, and different approaches work for different fabrics. However I've found that using a small portable steamer (the type with a hose attachment) works best for most fabrics - that is what we used here. Hang your screen, stretch it out as best you can, and then apply the steam to the wrinkles. Wrinkles gone!

[@alialabas9652]

THANK YOU!!!! you actually guide your viewers through soft, unlike so videos that rush the whole tNice tutorialng or talk too fast.

[@MonicaBU]

[@digitallayman]

Keith J Excellent fundamentals video Matt! Thank You!

[@Crazypreeteens]

Haha! Thank you soo much for this video! YOu really helped me! And I have a question that I really been wanting to ask someone. Every time i see a home-made video and they are using a green-screen, the green always reflects off of them. Or if they don;t have any green on them the outline doesn't look sharp and because of that it looks phony. So, how do they fix that in the movies? If you know the answer thank you soo much and any tips would be great too! Thank you!!

[@saitechinfo]

Very nice. Thanks!

[@ccgutter]

where did you get your lighting?

[@HansNature]

[@cityofandersonindiana2908]

I run a small public assess tv studio. I use green screen occasionally. My studio is small but I have a variety of light fixtures to use. I have a question. I have overhead fluorescent lights, should I leave them on or turn them off when I light our green screen wall?
