Who here have used Croma key (green screen) backdrops?

kingofthedemo · 04-16-2013, 03:22 AM

I used a few muslin backdrops at a shoot recently and I used a green screen for the first time, but the backdrop had a lot of pleats and wrinkles in it, will this cause a problem when editing (to remove the background) or are wrinkles and pleats okay in a green screen?

They will cause some slight range in the green tones, but will still key out with a little work. The key is (har har) to make sure the background is lit evenly.
