Prep for keying success: Introduction

- So finally, we're gonna end things with some material that actually comes before everything else we've done. Which is to say, what to think about when you're preparing for a green screen shoot. I'll show you how to evaluate whether a green screen is even called for, and why it might not be. What kind of camera you should use if you're planning to do this kind of shoot. And some basic tips about how to prep and what to think about. We're not gonna get into the kind of detail that would require a whole other course to teach you how to light and shoot a green screen. But I'll just give you some examples that pertain to some of the footage you've been using in this course.
