Picking Fabric For Your Green Screen Studio
You have decided that because of the benefits of using fabric for your green screen studios, you will set out on a journey to find the right fabric for the area you have prepared for your studio. However, not only do you have to find the correct fabrics but also a fabric that isn’t over your budget. Well, there are lots of fabric stores around and if you have the time, you can try going to every single one of them to find what you’re looking for.
However, if you’re pushed for time and you do not have the luxury to go to every fabric shop there is, you should consider simply going to the biggest shop there is, because the larger the shop is, the higher the possibilities that you will find what you are searching for in it. When you have chosen the shop to go to, here are the guidelines that you have to remember when selecting a fabric:
1. The material should be opaque although it is inevitable for fabric to be just a little bit reflective, be a bit picky this one time and rummage through their collection for something that doesn’t reflect light. What’s the reason behind this preference? Just imagine that when you use green screen studio, it’ll be the same with using a normal background. In truth, it will be a lot more sensitive than the normal backdrop or the ordinary studio. So if you tip the light in the area, a reflective green screen will create lighter hotspots
2. Look for lighter green. The brighter the green is, the better it is. You have to look for the brightest green you’ll be able to find. However be scared of the transition between green and yellow. Confirm that it’s a bright green but not bright enough for it to be confused with yellow. If your human eyes are confused, then the misconception will double in the post-editing so be cautious.
3. Look for material that is crease resistant. If you have selected fabric for your green screen, you would know this is your worst enemy and that this is the largest disadvantage in using fabric in your green screen studio. Test the material if it creases easily because you will be lugging the material around and it would save everyone a large amount of trouble if it can be moved around and set up without fiddling with the smoothness of the fabric.
