I am shooting a commercial. What is the best way to achieve a solid white background?
What is the best way to achieve a solid white background?
The guy just wants to walk on camera and speak about his product. He wants a white background. I have a green screen, but have never used it. What is the difference between using a green screen vs a white background?
What I'm wondering is if maybe what the OP visualizes is more than just a white wall. wparrish, were you thinking something more along the lines of "The Matrix", where the actor is standing on a white floor, that extends forever, into nothingness? I dunno, I'm just speculating. Cuz that would look different than just a white wall.
That's a green screen keyed to be white. Very simple to do. If you just have a white background or wall, it will show. Plus, unless you light the white wall very well, you're going to get a telltale shadow which will take away from the whole pristine blank slate kind of thing.
Green screen all the way much more cleaner.
