The Familiar Tides Test Shoots

Date: 23rd February 2023

It's time to do test shooting! Taking on a project that requires (the majority) of the scenes to be on green screen is challenging and also risky considering this is the final project. Nothing wrong with being adventurous and going outside of the box, however before we commit to this, we need to do test shoots!

Setting up the green screen was exciting, coming from past experience, I've used green screen many times, so key light 1.2 is not an unknown ground for me so I'm excited to be able to use this effect again.

The next step was ensuring that the green screen was well-lit. Since the green screen was going to be in main use for the film, we needed to figure out the lighting positions and where it's best lit as having shadows on the green screen can be damaging towards the post-production.

All went well on the first day of the testing shoot! Onto the next test shoot where we enter... the void.
