I was using a cheap 3-point lighting kit. The green screen was built from a piece of masonite and painted with the closest I could come to "green-screen green" paint from the hardware store.
I keyed it in AE 6.5 with KeyLight.

Feedback appreciated!

Yeah, I see a little jaggedness along the back edge of his head, but man... that's pretty tight right there.

What did you use for the composite? Oh... AE! Got it.

Gun,
I think if one of us notice something has to share it, good or bad, big or minimal. I didnt notice your point but a correction based on your perception can help making a better job or can make a personal point of view stronger.
I perceive this site as a safe area in which i can fine tune my jobs and help others do the same.
And, John, I really appreciate your form of commenting here. It's pure raw constructive criticism. Your posts are like lines of a character.
OOOps.... off topic, sorry Can.
 
That's pretty much how I see it, too.

Free consulting for all of us! -;)

I learn a lot here, both from reading and seeing and my tone is NOT intended to be hostile at all.

Maybe a lingual thing.

Sorry, but if he had not said that you still could see it on the back of his head. It looks good, but still needs work.

have you guys ever seen the Shallow DOF screen? its a big plastic sheet thats like a silk, that you hang behind the subject on camera, and it "blurs" the background. it looksl like that. crisp crisp crisp WHAM perfectly even blur. Theres no roll off to out of focus. IT kinda looks cool. it looks isolated. interesting effect.

Actually me and my friends did that effect on purpose once. We used the shallowest lense, and then set our subject in perfect focus, and then had everything - everything - else out to about 15 feet away. The result was that effect. Everyone thought it was fake.

PS am I spelling lense right?

They are cancelling her from his mind, you see the two walking down a street and after a cut shes completely blurred while talking behind him.
I couldnt notice the trick if it wasnt show in the making of.
 
is it possible to see this in motion? .. its not that hard to get a decent key with Keylight on a single frame.. its in motion that you can see if its good or bad..

so anyway u could post a short movie clip??..

many thanks
