The ‘Green Screen’ effect which is when an actor or tv host sits in front of a green screen which is then replaced by computer technology with something else, either a backdrop in the case of newsreaders or a complex city or movie scene for actors, has come a LONG WAY.
It’s more than just a backdrop now, and this video on Youtube really shows it.
This is from a company called Stargate studios, and frankly, its mind blowing!
The one for me that makes it amazing is actually a simple one – From ’24’ where Jack Bauer is on some steps outside the capital building in Washington – I’ve seen that many times, would NEVER have picked it.. Amazing.
Let me know what you think.
