[@TechTodayManoj]

What a tutorial!!! This solves all my questions. I have only one question to ask. Will this work on full body green screen as well? I wish to do make myself as a miniature for some of my videos. Will this work?

[@wolfamri]

Thank you! Yes it does work, but is not as clean because of the shadows. Make sure to wear shoes that have a bery different color/shade of the shadow (e.g. red). White is also not the best idea because you will get spill 😉

[@TechTodayManoj]

@@wolfamri thank you so much for the help.. ,❤

[@WatchWiseUS]

Wanted to add - you can Option click or Control Click (on Windows) and drag now to select multiple colors!

[@wolfamri]

Thanks for the update 🙏

[@WatchWiseUS]

Sorry for the spam comments. Excellent series of videos. I will use them all going forward for my clips! Sadly, I cannot afford a Sony camera right now so I'm using my cell phone, but I can get good 4K footage out of it - I just have no control on white balance etc.

[@wolfamri]

Great to hear that. There are smartphone apps that would let you set exposure and white balance manually.

[@WatchWiseUS]

@@wolfamri there's the Blackmagic app but it doesn't work very well with my S24 Ultra

[@monkeykanu]

It is pretty good explanation. But if we have some problem in particular part then we can make one more clip like that by holding and dral alt key . Then Remove effect on it and the mask the problem

[@wolfamri]

Thank you for your tip. But I’m not quite sure I understand. If the problem has to do with green scree, you can mask the ultra key effect.

[@Elroy4]

Best video on here about color keying and green screens. Can you do a video on how to remove the greenscreen's reflection on glasses and skin?

[@wolfamri]

Thank you! The color spill of the green screen isn’t really easy to remove. That’s something Hawaiki keyer does a great job on. However, it is best to avoid it by setting up your green screen as good as possible. Have you seen my green screen lighting video? Regarding the glasses: I don’t really mind that, because the reflections too would be keyed out and basically let the background shine through, which usually works really well. If that doesn’t work for you, you could mask that area on an individual layer and then place the „reflection“ you want underneath that layer. I hope that makes sense 😬

[@discursion]

I know it's a whole year later, but green-screen photography, please!

[@wolfamri]

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately there weren't all that many requests, so I will concentrate on my photography and lighting course for now.

[@sailmentor]

Hi Wolf, i really enjoy your videos! One question. I use a blackmagic cinema 4k. Is best to apply colour grading to BRAW/ProRes before or after i apply the ultra key? All the best, Jacob

[@wolfamri]

Thank you 😉. I don't think it will make much of a difference in regard to the keying result, but since you'd want to grade to match the background, I'd say you need to grade after you have placed your green screen footage in front of the final background.

[@sailmentor]

@@wolfamri thanks alot:) Keep up the good work

[@henrytheturnip]

How does this have so few likes? This series is a masterclass in green screen. Good job Wolf!

[@wolfamri]

Thank you so much, Henry. It's pretty new. I expected low numbers of views because it's not my classic target group. I hope it will pick up in time.

[@henrytheturnip]

@@wolfamri This is quality content, but yes it is quite niche. I'm using my small spare bedroom and Amazon fabric, but experimenting with backlighting the fabric with good results, a Godox TL60 tube light on the floor behind the fabric. The TL60 is RGB so I can use white fabric to still get a good green screen effect. I don't have a ton of money to throw at lighting, but I do have a couple of SL60W with barn doors, and an Amaran 200D with softbox for the "hero" lol. Foamboard reflectors help a lot. But the biggest thing that affects green screen quality? As you said, it's the size of your room. Anyway, much love from Western Australia :)

[@wolfamri]

Thank you. I experimented a lot for this video. In the end when I found that green screen editing trick with masking the ultra key filter, I also saw that the evenness of the background is less important than I thought. The only thing that is still left is the green spill on the person and that's an issue with smaller rooms. It's so fun experimenting with lights and comparing the results. Enjoy! Love back from the country with two letters less 😉🤣

[@henrytheturnip]

@@wolfamri I rent this house so I have no option to paint the wall :( But I love the mounted rails you have on your ceiling, that is so flexible. We use Davinci Resolve, is there an equivalent "Ultra Key" feature? Much love to our non-kangaroo alphabet neighbour :) Western Australia is beautiful in golden hour, especially if you like timelapse, come and visit, I will buy you a beer :)

[@wolfamri]

🤗 That would be awesome, but I‘m afraid despite having many things on my bucket list, I recently really try to fly less. And I couldn’t go any further than to Australia 🤣. The rails are awesome, but perhaps not as flexible as you might think, unless you have a lot of them. I haven’t used da Vinci Resolve in a long while. But I think you can work with masks, just like in premiere pro. They all basically work the same way.

[@alanjmyburgh]

Wow, what a high quality masterclass on green screen. Thanks very much!

[@wolfamri]

Thanks a lot for your comment, Alan. Much appreciated 🙏🙏

[@oasisdigitaloficial]

Fantastic, it helped A LOT! Thank you.

[@wolfamri]

Great to hear that, thank you for your feedback 🙏

[@Munffe97]

thank you for the videos, it really is a good technique but I am having problems: so I first key-out the head and it goes well but if I try to use the ultra key again it still edits the head part, so what I am doing is making another mask to only affect the body and not the head nor the background. At this point I have the head and the body key'd-out and it looks good but I can't get the other background parts without messing what I already key'd-out and making a mask to only cover the background without touching the other 2 ultra keys is hard with movement. I've watched the video and when you add the second ultra key it doesn't mess your head-key, why isn't it working like that for me? am I doing something wrong? I don't know if it matters but I also have them in the same order as the video: the head on top, body 2nd and background last

[@wolfamri]

That’s weird. Maybe a stupid question from me, but are you maybe not masking the key effect only, but the complete clip? I don’t think so, but just to make sure 😉

[@Munffe97]

@@wolfamri hi! yes only masking the key effect like the video, what I ended up doing is making the mask for the hair and another ultra key for everything else minus what I could cut with the clip-mask. I have to say sir thank you so much for this video, I tried every other tutorial that I could find but this one with the multi-keying was the only one that helped me save a bad green screen footage, doing 2 or more key mask to edit the clip is such a genius, simple and efficient solution, I will use this technique again in the future for sure

[@wolfamri]

That's so great to hear. So it worked in the end and you only had to do one green screen hair for the mask and the rest was taken care of with the second ultra key, right?

[@walterbinns6992]

[@FANTAFRUITYTWIST]

Great vid! Would love to see how you'd edit a full body shot.

[@wolfamri]

Thank you! That’s definitely more tricky. If I didn’t have the Hawaiki keyer, I’d do even more individual ultra key effects, mask them and keycrame them.

[@golaxo]

Thanks a lot, man! I have been struggling with this for YEARS. Actually I knew all the steps, I also used more Ultras, what I missed is the oval selection. This tiny detail is a real fricking gamechanger for me. I drink a whiskey today on your health :)

I’ve been working on green screening for two days following these steps and sometimes it works, sometimes not. Learning this stuff seems easy at first but I’m struggling lol

[@wolfamri]

May I ask what you are having issues with?

[@liceafilms]

@@wolfamri I can’t seem to get quite as clean results following your steps. I suppose it’s trial and error, I’m assuming I need better lighting. I also don’t feel like my image is as sharp as the background, so it looks off. Not sure what to do to make it look more natural. All in all, you’ve made a great video! It’s been extremely helpful in getting me on the right path, as I have zero experience green screening!

Have you seen the rest of the series? I started with backgrounds, then lighting, camera settings and this video is the last of the series. If you want, I’d love to have a look at your footage to see why it is not working.

[@wolfamri]

Were you able to solve your issues?

[@WordThought]

@@wolfamri thank you for your interest! The keying worked exactly as described! I even used the cyan backdrop..my issue is that with stereoscopic vr, the render has left and right eyes in one image...i have garbage on both sides of each eye...so the garbage mask wont get it all.. This was my 1st ever chromakey shoot..so i unfortunately had some areas not covered by green screen on extreme edges..i have a 180 degree setup with floor and ceiling green screen

[@WordThought]

I assume some.type of crop or multivideo layer masking would do it..but i will follow your advice...DONT MAKE RUBBISH GRESNSCREEN FOOTAGE IN THE 1st INSTANCE LOL. IN VR view..the garbage is mainly out of view and the focus of attention is closeup and center screen. I really appreciate your following up..I never would have figured this out.
