Without a Green Screen
Don’t have a green screen? If you’re using a PC you may still be able to try! First step is to download Snap Camera onto your PC. 2nd step is to add the “SimpleBackground” filter. Test it out and see how it works for your lighting and setup! Note that if your face is more than 4 feet away from the camera it may not work, so this setup won’t necessarily work for any dancers, aerialists or anything like that.
With a Green Screen
This setup can vary depending on the size of the greenscreen and the space you’re working on:
- Setup your camera as you would like it to be for your performance, as well as whatever other props or furnishing you need for your performance (tables, silks etc)
- Ensure that the green screen fills the entire frame while you’re performing.
- Try to keep the lighting even over most of the green screen. Brighter or darker spots can create irregularities that might make the background show up in the transparency.
