8 ways to add a special touch to your green screen background

One of the best green screen software for video editing is Hitfilm by FXhome. It has a green screen feature that lets you use green screen backgrounds in videos. Whether you want to add a green screen background because it’s your favorite color, or to create a green screen studio effect, this article has got you covered.

Green screens can be set up in your home to use green screen backgrounds for green screen videos. It can be tricky, but you can do it if you follow these simple steps:

• Decide where the green screen video shoot will take place. You might need to buy green screen paint or green paper and green fabric from a craft store or online shop.
• If desired, create a green screen studio with green backdrops that are easy to tape down to the floor and wall. Remember that green is a color that many cameras see as transparent, so the backdrop must be absolutely solid green without any lines or creases visible in your video footage. To achieve this, purchase high quality green screens instead of using things like sheets colored green.
• Think about green screen lighting. In green screen studio videos, green light is typically brighter than normal so green appears solid and bright in the video footage. If you’re trying to create a green screen background in your home, consider using stage or movie green lights to illuminate your green screen.
• Tape down your green fabric onto the floor and wall with gaffer’s tape, which can be found at most hardware stores for around $5 per roll. Gaffer’s tape will not leave marks when it removes from surfaces such as walls that must be repainted afterward for re-sale or rental purposes.

• Make sure green is not showing in your green screen videos. The green will need to be absolutely solid green, so check for any green pixelation or green outlines that appears around objects or people in the video footage. You can fix this by repositioning the green fabric until there are no visible signs of green, whether they are pixels or green lines on the fabric.
• Add an interesting background behind your subject using the “add a layer” feature in Hitfilm. For example, you could add fireworks against mountains and then use chroma key (also known as keying) to make it look like your subject is standing among them for a really cool effect. Then save the movie to your computer.
