Green Screen

We intended on having a cut scene whereby you saw Emily (Katrina) in front of sped up traffic for dramatic effect. To do this we needed to shoot at a green screen with Emily (Katrina) then film traffic for more time than we needed so we could speed it up. At the Blue Fin building we used a green screen but were left to our own devices without supervision to shoot at it. The end product after superimposing Emily (Katrina) onto the traffic and speeding it up looked good, the only problem with it was that we hadn't used bright enough lights in the studio therefore Emily (Katrina) body was almost strobing and sometimes the green screen bled through.

To solve this we tried to take the image of Katrina into Final Cut Express and clean it up with a chroma keyer then loop one frame continuously through the clip and add a video effect, this worked but didn't look very realistic and we decided it wasn't up to the standard of the rest of our work so did not include it in our final task.

Here's the final product:
