Multiple Green shades?

Hi,

I am shooting a yoga video today against a green screen and what going to have the subject elevated off the floor on a stage. I was considering using a green sheet to cover the stage. Is it possible to use a different shade of green, and how would that effect the chroma key?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, you could use 2 different shades of green together (which of course need to be chroma key-compatible shades).

Then in your editing application, perform 2 keys; one for each colour.

Thank you so much for the prompt response!

Yea as WVD said, it will work. Most programs will allow you to put in many key effects for one video track and set them to a specific color.

Just make sure the lighting is even throughout and that you have enough lights so that anyone standing on the "Stage" doesn't cast many shadows. I would use a few footlights around the edge of the set to light the floor. LED lights work best for this as they don't get hot. You may run into color temp difference issues though...
