A well-equipped photography studio is the one used to create magnetic images and videos. A good photographer needs to create an appropriate environment for filming or photography. A studio where green screen photography is done by a photographer is called a green screen studio. Here, a subject is placed against a green or blue background and performs a scene or strikes a pose depending on the requirement.

What is green screen photography?

This is also called a chroma key effect. In this type of image creation, a photographer can digitally replace the background image of the subject with any other image. In this process, the background image is superimposed or merged with any other images or images with the help of a video editing tool. You can use the color green or blue as the background, since these are the two colors that are furthest from the human skin tone. The second reason is that a camera lens is sensitive to these two colors. The color green is mainly used because it is good for masking during the process of applying the chroma key effect. You can use this way of creating images for tutorials, shooting movies or documentaries, and for other similar purposes.

What are the necessary equipment for a study of this type?

You must have high quality equipment in your green screen studio kit. A good photographer keeps a high quality point and shoot camera or any good SLR (Single Lens Reflex) camera as per the requirement. Keeping a full digital SLR camera is a better option as it has the interchangeable lens feature. Keeping a green or blue muslin cloth is important during chroma encoding. You can also keep a green screen body suit that your actor can wear and can manipulate the image making you invisible. You can keep amber gel sheets or butterfly sheets for visual effects. Flood lights are one of the basic things to maintain. However, studio lights are better as they use reflectors called umbrellas and softboxes for effects. All these are the main equipment that must be present in your studio.
