I'm rarely impressed.</p> <p> The only thing I would do different is shoot in a better location, maybe light the scene too. It sounds picky, but it would make a huge difference. Watch your headroom too; you're chopping off the top of your head. But as far as the effect, great job. </p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/the-coolest-sweater#post-42308 Thu, 18 Dec 2008 04:09:27 +0000 LiQvid 42308@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>one day I didn't really know what to do, so I thought I'd try something new in Sony Vegas..</p> <p>anyway, here's the result..   please comment..

For outdoor stuff I use pre-dyed cotton fabric suspended from a support frame with sprung clamps. If I need to go wider I use two frames and leave a few feet hanging off the left side of the second frame - this then overlaps the frame uprights where they meet and clamps to the top bar of the first frame, thus hiding the uprights. It forms a vertical join on the fabric but this doesn't cause any problems with the keying if kept flat (no puckers). If the screen needs to be in an L shape, say to the front and side of your car, the overlap can be swept gently where the two frames meet to form a nice curved corner.

So I need to know what kind of fabric is good to paint for that.</p> <p> It's for general green screen applications but for now I was thinking of wide shots of a on-location still car that would be composited into a moving background using all that green screen like a giant back-projection unit. Imagine a giant curve of green screen around a parked vehicle so that everything other then the vehicle is green. Now imagine the green replaced with a moving background image. That's what I'm moving for.</p> <p>I don't even know where I could get bolts of cloth that big not ot mention if I should use shower curtain style eyelets and rings or what. Advice appreciated.</p>
