Shooting on a “green screen” is the technique of shooting your subject against a green background that is later “keyed” out to replace the background with different footage. This workshop introduces you to the basics of setting up a green screen, lighting, shooting and the post-production process of working with green screen footage. You will shoot original footage and learn how to key the green screen in Final Cut Pro
