Hi Wolf, I thought of leaving words of appreciation for you. As someone who does photography out of passion, I stumbled upon your videos. Your videos, coupled with your maturity, are a treat to watch. I understand the effort and dedication that go into producing each of your videos, therefore, I wanted to show my appreciation for you and your work in photography. Photography is not about gimmicks (expensive, large inventory of equipment, photo manipulation, editing applications, AI etc.), but it's about how telling beautiful stories with less, which is evident in your work. Keep up your great work and continue delighting your viewers with your journey in photography! 📸 🌅 🙏🏼 In a related note, not every person is blessed to have a spouse (partner) who supports and be a part of one's passion. You are blessed with a lovely partner and a gift of love. May the Lord bless you both in your lovely journey together! 🙏🏼

Thank you! Do you mean on the sides on the temples? In the front you shouldn’t get green reflections, because the screen is behind you. But I do get reflections in the glasses from the lights. Whether you can avoid them really depends more whether they are concave or convex rather than the placement of the light.

Thanks in advance for your time and knowledge. Looking to pull a perfect key and would appreciate your insight. Shooting in my home studio with controlled lighting. Shooting on a Canon C 100 MarkII. I have a choice of lenses a sigma 35 mm prime, the factory 50 mm prime and of course a telephoto 28 mm to 70. Incidentally the 35 mm is the perfect length for a talking head which is what I shoot most. The native ISO is 850, I'm just curious about the best settings beyond for the key. It appears I have to do a lot of color correcting in final cut. I do get some spill and noise around the hairline. As you're probably aware of the camera C100 MarkII is just 8 bit with a 4K sensor down sampled to 1080. Having just watched your video it looks like 5.6 is the perfect F-stop with the green screen slightly under exposed with even lighting? Perhaps 60 frames per second not 24? My camera has the 180° shutter speed option.Should I avoid any different colored lights? I have a slight blue tint for a hair light and I do like a warmer tone on the face… Plus the background picture I key to has a blue studio tone.That said should I keep everything at approximately 5500 K? Is there advantage to shooting in log color correcting and then pulling the key? OK I'll stop rambling and give you a chance to answer. Thanks again. Michael

Thank you@@wolfamri! My reasoning is this, (but I'm no expert): If I can shoot at 100-200mm focal length, maybe the proportions of my body and hands will be a bit more appealing, and allow me to use a not so large green screen. I would like to take advantage of the long room and avoid the big-nose big-hands effect of going for a shorter focal length. All your videos have been really helpful, thanks again!

@luisfranciscocordero9627 Makes total sense, Luis. But in the end you have to find a balance between good looking body (which is usually not a big issue unless you go for 35mm or less) and green spill. I usually shoot 55mm and 85mm (so far full frame). The room length I usually use is around 6m (18ft).

Very informative! I have a question about the lens mm to use. I was thinking about Sigma 16mm f1.4 (which I could use for both green screen side gigs, and live streaming (no green screen, just for my face), and when using green screen, I would lose the bokeh effect either way, I just want to avoid having 2 separate lenses), however, since you mentioned that 35mm and above is recommended, I wanted to ask you which lens could work for me. My room is pretty small, but the max I can go is about 300 cm between the green screen itself and the wall, but considering that I would need need to move from the green screen a bit, the length will be even smaller. I was hoping I could do full body shots too with the wide lens, but I don't think I would be able to do full body with 30mm and beyond (correct me if I am wrong). What are your recommendations?

@wolfamri

Full body shots will be really tricky. Do you have a kit lens? I assume you are using an APS-C camera, when you consider the 16mm f/1.4?

@wolfamri yes, APS-C camera, Lumix GH5 (no kit lens). I watched a few comparison videos between 16 to 30mm from 3 meters, and the 30mm lenses might be a perfect fit, although I am not sure if it's the best option for me.

Hey @wolfamri ! I also noticed that I can't turn on APS-C S35 Shooting mode if any of the 4k File Format's are selected while in Movie Mode. I can only select APS-C S35 Shooting mode if shooting in XAVC S HD or XAVC S-I HD. However, I noticed when I switch the camera to Manual mode (not the little Film icon on the dial) than I can turn on APS-C shooting mode. So, that's the mode I'll use, but I'm wondering why I'm seeing so many others here on youtube saying to choose Movie mode as the first thing you do when shooting video with the A7S III.

@wolfamri

3 ай бұрын

That's because the resolution of the a7s series is very low (in order to make it the low-light king). It has a resolution of 12mpix, while most other cameras have 24mpix or more. Unfortunately you can't crop from a sensor, which biggest resolution is 4k. The others have 6k or more (photo resolution), so you can easily crop. I hope that makes sense. In photo mode you can crop, but you still get a smaller resolution.

Hey Wolf!! Started filming green screen with the a6700 last night! Great results from your tips! Wanted to ask We noticed there was a small light on the front of the camera to the upper right.

@wolfamri I just tried shooting a test video with my Sony a7s III while in manual mode ( [M] on the dial, not movie mode with the film icon). I turned on APS-C S35 Shooting just as you suggested, got the image composed just as I wanted it in the monitor, and recorded the video. When I played the video back, I saw that it recorded the video in full frame so I was capturing so much more of the image than what I intended when composing the image in the monitor! What's going on there?!

@wolfamri

3 ай бұрын

that's surprising. In photo M mode the a7sII doesn't really record with the video settings that you choose (codec, etc.). That changed with the a7sIII if I remember right. However, it's weird that it would record something else than it displays. But I don't have the camera, so I'm afraid I can't try that.

4:16 If you have experience using an IBK stack to pull a key and roto to isolate areas for your dynamic despill, using a lower shutter speed should be fine. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, just go for the higher shutter speeds for now. You will have less motion blur in your shots, and the motion will look a little less realistic, but maybe that's okay for now.

Hi Mr. Amri, I trust this message finds you well. I recently came across your green screen tutorial on KZread and wanted to express my gratitude for sharing such valuable insights. Your expertise is truly inspiring. Having watched your tutorial, I'm eager to embark on my content creation journey. I'm a researcher using a Sony a7 III with an f/1.4 24mm Gmaster lens. Your mention of issues with wide-angle lenses has left me a bit concerned. My designated filming space is my empty basement with brown walls measuring approximately 4m x 3m. Considering my budget of up to $400, I'm looking to set up a green screen for my KZread channel focused on educating people about AI. I'm particularly interested in achieving full-body coverage and incorporating some movement on the screen. Given the constraints and the potential lens change cost, I was hoping to seek your advice on an effective yet budget-friendly green screen setup. Your guidance would be immensely appreciated. Thank you once again for your time and for sharing your knowledge.

@wolfamri

6 ай бұрын

Hi! Thank you! Great to hear that you are inspired. If you want a full body shot, you need a wide angle. So 24mm might even work. At best do some tests in your room without green screen, but be aware that you need some distance to the background. 😉

Again, remarkable video! So good, detailed and understandable. Love it! The only thing that makes me question is, what if I only have an 18-55mm (1:2,8-4) lens? After first tests, I can only go to 20mm if I still want to have 2m distance to my green screen. Lens to Greenscreen length is 3.20m. I have 4 Neewer 660 2,4G LED (45W) Lights incl. 80cm umbrellas for diffusion. Any idea?🤔 Can I even go to 1/150 for shutter speed to reduce the green spill even more?

@wolfamri

9 ай бұрын

Thank you, Dino! I'm afraid that is always a compromise. 20mm should be quite OK as it is 32mm full frame equivalent (assuming you are using Canon). But it's on you to decide if the distortion is something you can live with. If not, you have to find a balance by getting closer to the green screen and living with more spill instead. Try to use two of your lights as rim light and at the same time background lights. Perhaps a white gel might help you even it out a bit more, but that way you lose a bit of control over where the light spills. Try that without the umbrellas first whether that would give you a well-lit background (depends a bit on the width of your room - the further you put the lights to the side, the more even the background, but the less powerful the rim light. For shutter speed: yes you can go to 1/200sec too, unless you realize your lights start flickering. The problem only is that this will introduce more noise. Just keep in mind, that will only help you with motion. If you mean the green spill from the background, that is not a question of shutter speed. I hope that helps rather than confuses ;).

Hello. My case scenario is similar. I have a distance of about 3.2mts from the lens to my green screen, and I'll be around 2mts from lenses and around 1,2mts from the green screen. The green screen I'm buying is the ELGATO XL 2mts height and 1,82mts wide. My camera is a Sony a6700. And my doubt is between the sigma 16mm 1.4 DC DN or the versus sigma 30mm 1.4 DC DN. Because as far as I learned, the 30mm would be more of a realistic image, without the 'curved' aberration. But I'm afraid that the 30mm is too zoomed in for the (short) distance I have between the lens and me. In that sense the 16mm would fit more of me and the greenscreen in the frame. (ideally I would like that all the 1.80mts of the green screen would be in frame) I've just learned your suggestion to take a Full frame lens and adapt it to the APC-S sensor, but I'm afraid that the price isn't compelling to me, and I would prefer to zoom the image a bit (even if it loses quality) to get rid of the corner vignette. I'm a really noob in camera specs and such, so I would appreciate for you to keep that in mind on your answer 😅 Thanks a lot 🫡 @@wolfamri

@JoaoPedro-nd8dx let me try 😉 In 3,2m distance (your green screen distance to camera), The 30mm lens would capture a frame of 2,5m x 1,66m In 2m distance (your subject distance to camera), the 30mm lens would capture a frame of 1,56m x 1,05m The height is for photos though, for video it will be a little less because of the 16:9 aspect ratio. I hope that makes sense. Both values according to the app photopills. You could try to use an app called „viewfinder“ for testing where you can set the sensor size (in your case 23,6x15,7mm) and focal length (that’s the 16 or 30mm) and the app will simulate these in your smartphone display 😉.

Hi Rowdy, the frame rate depends on how much light you have available and how much noise your phone creates. I'd do tests in this regard. 1/100sec is the lower end IF POSSIBLE. I'd probably go for ProRes2020, but I'd do tests here too. Just shoot the same scene with different settings and see which one gives you best results. I still shoot 4:2:0, and I'm really happy with it for chroma keying, so except for pros, all of the settings should work OK. But of course it depends a bit on what you really want to do with the footage. If you only play the talking head like I do, LT would be enough. If you need the highest possible quality for whatever reason, then go with HQ. I hope that helps a bit (but I doubt it 😬😁)

Thank you sir! Btw we’d love to send you our first green screen music video with the a6700! Always love your expertise feedback 🙏🤘

Hey there! Looking forward to your video. Regarding the mic: I use the Rode wireless go 2 and am really happy with it. But I don’t know any other wireless except for the version 1. DJI has come up with one and others too.

@@wolfamri hey wolf! Here’s the video I promised to send! It’s our first music video with the a6700. Overall very happy! Used all of your green screen settings as well! Only thing we might possibly play with is upping the shutter speed even more to continue to get rid of motion blur (we move around a lot 😂) but we also don’t want everything crazy choppy and glitchy either kzread.info/dash/bejne/iWuLtJV_dZq2dJs.html

That's awesome! Congrats you two. I didn't really see the motion blur, but I totally understand that things like that can annoy you when editing - I'm just like that. 🤣. The only thing that I see that could be slightly improved is matching the color of the green screen footage to the background. Hard to say, but I would have moved it slightly to the yellow and magenta side in that case. But nothing that non-nerds would ever realize 🤣. Well done!

if i'm using 1/100 shutter speed, so how about my fps? still in 25 fps/s or 50 fps/s ?

@wolfamri

Still 25fps, it’s about freezing motion, so 50fps wouldn’t make a difference in this regard.

Regarding focal lengths, if I was to shoot on an A7SIII (full-frame) with a full-frame lens, but in Sony's APS-C/crop sensor mode, should my lens focal length be in the 35-55mm range or the 50-85mm range?

@wolfamri

That depends on the space you have available. Longer is usually better 😉

​@@wolfamri I guess my question is: for the ideal focal ranges that you mention in this video, is that assuming that you are using a full-frame lens in combination with a full-frame camera?

@wolfamri

@benferguson3866 I'm discussing that at 2:50 in this video 😉. 30-55 on an APS-C camera and 50-85 on full frame. But longer never hurts (unless you are using a teleprompter and need to read from afar )😎.

Yes. The crop sensor lenses usually show a little more vignetting because they were constructed for a smaller sensor.

Recommendation for the FPS?

That’s definitely better than shooting wide open. You can additionally mask the corners in your editing software. I explain how to do that in my green screen editing video if you haven’t seen that yet 😉.

To avoid the vignetting you can also just crop the image slightly if all you have is a person standing in the middle

After that, i editing green screen keying , quality of my hair and face looked bad because of the blur processing, so I asked if there were any better tips when shooting.

Does the whole NTSC vs PAL thing really matter if a person only cares to release content on the internet, such as youtube?

@wolfamri

Жыл бұрын

Yes and no. It's more a question of flickering lights when the electric current has a frequency of 50Hz and you are filming with e.g. 1/60sec or vice versa. With some lights that is not an issue, but with others it is. So to be on the safe side, I'll stick to the NTSC vs PAL thing.
