What size bg are you using? Is it a large grp? And what software are going to use to key the image??

Most are crap and only good for events but there 3 that are very good. But you are looking at $400 upwards....

Xpress digital only ggod for Pirate parties. Green screen Wizard semi ok but not the best.

When lighting the subject there many things to get right or you will be making more work for your self.

The back grounds were made with 3D software. Not a few for a few years now. Need to get back into it.

Lots of little tips to take note. But I will not post on here. PM me. Too many togs try this and it looks ....scheisse
