Before I start, last week we focused on lighting so I'll post some pictures from that. We were assigned to portray a mood by only using lighting.
Now for the real deal, keying. Keying is when we take a shot and composite it into another. Like before, what better way to explain than to show an example. Actually, now that I think about it, this is almost like the other video with the car and the motorcycle. This time however, we have a plate (background) and footage of a person. We actually got to choose the footage and plates (which I organised for the whole class ;) Anyways, I chose a shot of a city street at night along with some footage of James, a student who graduated last block.
Now James was filmed on a greenscreen. This means that I have to extract the green and put him on top of the plate, making sure to get all the strands of hair! Not only am I overlaying him but, matching color and noise. For those who don't know I put an example of noise below :)
The project isn't due until Monday but I thought I'd get a head start so I'll post what I've done so far!
