I bought a kit on Amazon with 4 lights, soft box,umbrellas, stands and green screen for less than $200. But yes, a piece of green cloth and a window works fine too. Don’t wait to create. Get in with what you have. Content is king. Thanks for your inspiring videos.
this was honestly such a helpful video. I am a total green screen beginner but love film and editing so this was absolutely perfect. I tried your tips today and it worked super well. Thank you for this!!
after watching a hundred videos on RUclips where everyone said it was impossible to have a good keying without at least three lights i came across your video and it encouraged me to open my green screen and see it for myself. I hung it in the kitchen in front of a big window and even though my iso was 500 It turned out great for my work! I just wanted me separate on a background even with green showdows on me. It is a video for kids with lots of animated things on the screen that distracts them anyway. Thanks a hundred times for this awsome video. It saved me a lot of money.
You have given me my solution to my green-screen problem... how to hang it tightly in front of my messy bookshelf. Those trouser hangers are just what I will use. Thank you
bro you a life saver. I was just about to buy all these soft boxes etc and go to town. This looks so much better and easier and a money saver. Thank you :) haha
Yup pretty good for a consumer level video maker. Big problem comes when you actually want to light your presenter to better match the composite image - you simply can't do that with one big soft light.
Great video. Just wondering what the name of the fabric you’re using is and how you would attach it to a wall or if you’d need stands in a living room situation.
Very informative video about green screen. I've already tried it with a green bed cover. I stretched these on the top and bottom of a door by closing the door. 3 meters from the door is a large window for the light. I have to do it in the morning because the light is on the north side. But it works, and that's the most important thing
Fantastic video Stewart! thanks very much for sharing and loving the positive vibes. I love Scotland, I have been there a few times now and we were very lucky with the weather :) we do have a soft spot for Sconser. Looking forward to visit there again.
I had a problem of removing green colour around my clothes when editing my videos after shooting on a green screen but now I understand because it'll not be difficult again, Thank you so much Boss
Wow. Saved me from throwing money away! Caught your video just in time. Subscribed and shared. I like that you mention software too. I happen to have Final Cut Pro X already, and I use SONY ar2. So looks like I'm good to go. THANKS!
Hi I see that you used a beach house background from our local beach. I’m using green screen videos to save those beach houses. Thanks for your video. You’re helping to save them.
This was helpful in a sense that I can get a sheet or something green for the studio/playroom I have. However now I need to know what kind of software, program or whatever to use to edit video. Can I record using phone etc. but at least for now I know about good green screen.
Thank you. I am a teacher thrust into online. I need cheap solutions. I found a wardrobe hanger and the Muslim green screen is coming. Thanks for the hints on the window light. Last semester I had issues with the night class but the day class was fine. I'll look for diffused lights.
Great vid, really informative......Not looking at youtubing just interested in green screen and how it works.. My interest peaked when you showed how easy it is in "post" to key out...Wow....(LIGHTBULB!) moment for me....thanks'
I'm a newbie when it comes to chromakeying, but I have this idea. I've not had a lot of luck with green screen, but I have blue screen on the other side. I'm going to try the blue side. I think I might have better success because blue may not cast as much shadow. I'll see. Thanks for the video.
You can use any solid colour for your back screen however you still need to light it properly! The reason green colour is used is that there are very little green colour in human beings! It also makes your wardrobe easier but if you use a green screen and dress with some green clothes you are going to have problems, the same goes for other clours!
Hi There, this will sound like a dumb question but what “green” colour should it be? Is it a particular Pantone or particular shade of green? I’m actually colour blind so just want to make sure I select the right type of green cloth :-) Thanks.
amazing. i would have thought the light gray shadows off to the side would be a problem, but as you explained, they are not harsh shadows therefore they dont cause a problem. thx!
great video this is so simple and it works a treat just about to give up what with all the lights and positioning tried this and in ten minutes was up and running, Thanks
I subscribed, because I really like your studio Videos. I do have a drone, but I don't watch much about it. But those studio videos are REALLY great made.
Thanks for the informative video. Would you please outline in much more detail how you crop out the narrow green cloth at the sides to expand the backdrop effect. I feel that is a major technical detail missing. Thanks in advance
I love your production which looks so professional from a set so simple and even less than basic! I have a 9’ x 15’ green screen and have struggled with uneven lighting. My setup is in my office and I’m planning on turning it around to face the double French doors entry with 1’ wide glass panels on each side bringing the total of glass to 10’ wide by almost 7’ high. I’m in Los Angeles where sunlight is plenty. Question is, will I have enough light if the green screen is about 25’ away from these doors and behind two desks? If not, I have a ring light to compliment the sunlight, would that be ok? Please advise. Thank you!
I watched a video that suggested a backlight facing a white wall that then reflects onto the Green Screen. Direct light (from artificial light) might cause “splotches. Keep searching, keep trying stuff !
TBH i'd never heard of green screen so please excuse what may be a silly comment. Can i green screen with an action cam? Or must i buy a funky and expensive digital cam?
Nice informative video...i use a blue screen in low light which seems to make keying out easier...so right that you dont need expensive gear...i just have blue material pinned to a board
Amazing! Is it possible to get similar result with a keylight+softbox for when the sun's not available? I'm aware of your other video with 1 keylight+green screen, but that set up requires a much larger green screen
Hi, I'd like you to share your way of preparing and shooting your educationnal videos. I would like to hear how you write, how you plan yous shots, how you can look confident on camera even if you need to deliver a precise text, if you are using a telepromter to help you or if it feels conterproductive for you to stay natural on camera with it. I'd like you to prepare a sort of Gantt diagram to explain how you manage your time to stay efficient and reactive when things goes wrong... I love your way of producing your tutorial videos. Thanks for all this superb work !
Nice job explaining that :) I just have started and after 3 videos, I am now thinking of using the greenscreen. It helps to simplify the idea and begin with minimum:)
awesome. my question is, i see that u don't move your arms much, always in front of you body. is your setup really working? i wonder how would be the blending if I have to work with my arm open

Great to hear!

I bought two .97 cent cheapo, plastic lime green party table cloths from Walmart. Works great and it was only 2 bucks!
Oh dang I didn’t even think of that
Do you have any footage to show?
I have a 132 dollar one 😂
What do use as a stand or to hang the cloths?
You beat me by 3¢ 🤣
This green screen idea, is sooo very much appreciated. You are helping me recognise i dont need to be great to start, i just need to get started.
yeah.. now I know that we can start with less..
"[I] dont [sic] need to be great to start, [I] just need to get started." That's the best advice on the Internet. Thank you, Simone.
Stewart you are a excellent teacher and your cheapest setup blows away many big budget set ups!
this was honestly such a helpful video. I am a total green screen beginner but love film and editing so this was absolutely perfect. I tried your tips today and it worked super well. Thank you for this!!
Before = ??????
After I watch this = 😲💡👍
Big big thanks to you.

Great video man! I'm trying to learn more about green screen on a budget and your video really helped a lot, thanks. Hope someday to visit Scotland!
That is fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm speechles! Miles of green fabric, endless softboxes - that's all about my experience!
bro you a life saver. I was just about to buy all these soft boxes etc and go to town. This looks so much better and easier and a money saver. Thank you :) haha
Awesome! Shooting a green screen in 2 days & this really helps! And, ironically, our film is about an historical moment in Scotland.
Yup pretty good for a consumer level video maker.
Big problem comes when you actually want to light your presenter to better match the composite image - you simply can't do that with one big soft light.
This is great!! What size is your green screen? Realizing I don't need a huge one is such a sigh of relief.
I see few other people have asked this but can you give us more details on the fabric you use? I'm assuming it needs to be that bright lime green?
Great video. Just wondering what the name of the fabric you’re using is and how you would attach it to a wall or if you’d need stands in a living room situation.
If u use the same room for green screen again and again it is better to paint or use a ceiling mounted curtain
Very informative video about green screen. I've already tried it with a green bed cover. I stretched these on the top and bottom of a door by closing the door. 3 meters from the door is a large window for the light. I have to do it in the morning because the light is on the north side.

I hit the Subscribe button so fast just from seeing your editing style and way of sharing info. Thanks man! New subbie
I've been using green poster board I get at the dollar store. Not perfect, but have gotten good results really cheap 😁👍
Yeah they work thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!
Same 😁
Best, practical green screen video I've seen yet. Cheers!
Fantastic video Stewart! thanks very much for sharing and loving the positive vibes. I love Scotland, I have been there a few times now and we were very lucky with the weather :) we do have a soft spot for Sconser. Looking forward to visit there again.
you have quite a lucky lighting situation lmao.
Painting the room in mat green seems the best way
Yes so i can just show myself in space ahahahah i can fool my whole WHOLE zoom class
I've done that xd, but not that bright green! (Its still works tho😳)
Super Watching in 2024!😊
I had a problem of removing green colour around my clothes when editing my videos after shooting on a green screen but now I understand because it'll not be difficult again,
Thank you so much Boss
did u fixed it?
You could've just said, use a big window as a softlight source and be done with the video in a minute or so but 8:44 is good too.
This was extremely helpful thank you. I hope to be using green screen soon on my channel
what software do use bro
Amazing.Glad I found your channel!! Looking forward to new interesting videos!
thanks for the great video! I hope you will do more on green screens, lighting, etc. cool stuff!
small thing but making people happy :)
Wow. Saved me from throwing money away! Caught your video just in time. Subscribed and shared. I like that you mention software too. I happen to have Final Cut Pro X already, and I use SONY ar2. So looks like I'm good to go. THANKS!
Very well done video and super helpful!! Thanks for sharing!!
great tips!👌 and humor😉😂
I like the green screen on a budget. Great video.
Thanks Ron!
Thank you for great practical and useful instruction!
Hi I see that you used a beach house background from our local beach. I’m using green screen videos to save those beach houses. Thanks for your video. You’re helping to save them.
If you don't want to pay for fabric I found a green plastic outdoor tablecloth for parties works great!
I do too. I steam them a bit to remove the wrinkles.
@@Marys-Channel oh I didn't know that trick, thanks
I know just what you mean, green screen is bonkers and very addictive
Good tip! May try it this weekend. Have a great weekend guys!
This is incredibly helpful and also entertaining. Thanks for your hard work!

This was the best video on the subject of how to do green screens.
Great stuff guys! Appreciate the info!
once again super video and so well presented , well done.
Thanks for this video! Helped me a lot!
Would love to see a video on the checks that one should go through in preparation for filming 👌🏼
Buying this today... Thank you so much
Great vid...great presentation...clearly communicated...thanks for sharing!
Absolutely brilliant video - thank you so much -subscribed !

Am I overthinking this if I ask whether a specific fabric is needed or is any green fabric okay? Thanks for the great content :)
This is amazing, how did you make it so Crisp with no fuzzyness around your body?
Awesome simplicity for maximum effect. Subscribed and look forward to viewing your drone videos as a drone is on my "to-get" list.
Nice Accent, I want to go to Scotland someday
This is so awesome and makes it look so easy! Thank you!!!
Thank you For This. Where do I get the THANK YOU$ button you have below this video? Or is it only for RUclips Employees?
Great video very helpful indeed
Thanks for the informative video. Would you please outline in much more detail how you crop out the narrow green cloth at the sides to expand the backdrop effect. I feel that is a major technical detail missing. Thanks in advance
wow. this is cool and easy.
great video man i love all your tips, you got a thumbs up from me
Great instructional video as usual, thanks
Correct lightning would do you a huge favor. and then dont key in very light or dark color. go for middle tone, like gray
Loving these tutorials branching away from drone stuff! Top class!
Appreciate the support!
Thanks so much my friend. I was thinking about getting a green screen soon and this gave me important info :)
This is really really great idea you have been mashed off. This will help me a lot, since I am on the tight budget. Thank you all Guys!!!

Goldmine, ty!
Thank you. Very informative and wonderful tips.
I love your channel, so much to learn.
Great presentation. I want start one. Can I use green screen to make myself walking up a staircase that loves up to Heaven? I
TBH i'd never heard of green screen so please excuse what may be a silly comment. Can i green screen with an action cam? Or must i buy a funky and expensive digital cam?
Nice informative video...i use a blue screen in low light which seems to make keying out easier...so right that you dont need expensive gear...i just have blue material pinned to a board
Love it! Awesome video.
Great way to get started in green screen. Great video!! thank you
Excellent!
Thank you. This video is helpful. I will now give it a try :)
I just want to heart you say, "pour some Mortlach 20 Year Single Malt Scotch Whisky"
Amazing! Is it possible to get similar result with a keylight+softbox for when the sun's not available? I'm aware of your other video with 1 keylight+green screen, but that set up requires a much larger green screen
What is the material? Muslin?
Im wondering the same thing?
@@Dolcedollie awwww! i thought you were going to be 'him' giving the answer! :-)
Great video!
Can you use a light stand to illuminate behind the screen… I don’t have windows that can cast light evenly… too many trees
Wow that's cool thanks so much for this video it's really helpful

WHat lens and camera are you using? I can't seen to get a wide enough frame with the crop sensor. Any suggestions?
I love his accent
Thanks for video. I was expecting link to buy green screen
I agree.. I immediately looked for a link for a green screen to use (even before video was over)... nothing
Me too! even where and type of material that was used?
awesome. my question is, i see that u don't move your arms much, always in front of you body. is your setup really working? i wonder how would be the blending if I have to work with my arm open
This was excellent stu...
LOL... Love the special FX :)
