I went through the whole green screen thing & my biggest problem was where the heck to put up my 10 x 12 screen. I don't got enough room in my house! If I had a special room, I'd paint the damn wall to make it nice & smooth. As it is now, my wife don't appreciate a bright green bedroom! Secondly, getting the friggin' lighting right takes HOURS, if not DAYS, to learn how to set up properly. And that's AFTER you've purchased hundreds of $$$ of lighting equipment! Yeah, I know the basics of lighting now & how to use chroma-key but the time invested was way overdone. So keep tellin' us when to "Cut The Crap!" Rainer ABSOLUTELY RIGHT, Jim!!!
