I wasn't sure where to post this so mods - feel free to move this.

I just finished shooting a promo for a business school. A significant portion of it was an announcer in front of a green screen. I am having a hard time finding decent virtual sets.
can anyone point me to something decent / not terribly expensive (maybe even free?)

thanks!
 
Virtual sets are more than just after-the-fact add-ins. They are 3D mapped, and coordinated with any camera movements. It takes hardware and software to do this, outside of the normal green screen and camera.

Since you've already shot, and I'm assuming that the shots were pretty much locked-down, what you're really looking for is chromay key conetnt, which can be pretty much any backdrop that you want. Create your own in PhotoShop, or go shoot some footage of a building, a park, and office, whatever you want.

Or buy from some place like this:

Yeah i've seen these before - they look a bit 1996 :)
Shooting my own isnt an option due to time constraints. There's gotta be stock photography or video taht can be used for this purpose out there.
 
Problem is that everything you can get cheap/free will look like it was drawn on a computer. The really polished stuff is pretty high-dollar, and usually custom-made.
