Green Screen Backdrop Background by Fancierstudio -6'x9' Chromakey Green Screen

I had been doing my financial trading podcast Bodies X Wix using OBS Software and I noticed someone doing something similar but the background was the chart. So I thought if doing the same and I looked up how to do it. At first, I had a light green sheet that spanned across my entire wall and I found the chroma key for that color and it barely worked. Until I ordered this. After I got this it worked extremely well with my webcam that is in my Macbook, I didn't have to use an external webcam and it still turned out great. I'm also using no professional lighting, just the lighting in my room. There is a little bit of a greenish outline around me, and that's even after I've tried to perfect the settings in OBS. Now, if you really want professional-quality, yes, get a good streaming webcam like a Logitech C920s, Or C922, Or anything better. Also, if you're going to be doing bigger projects, get a bigger size than this one. But this one spans the size of my wall and my webcam catches my shoulders up. I could redo it to where the width is smaller and the length goes to my floor, but for me this is all I need. It just took a couple of tacks in the wall and VOILA. Now it looks like I'm part of the charts I'm showing people while describing them on Bodies X Wix (Shameless plug, but check out my YouTube Channel if you want to learn to trade :) )

I liked this muslin green screen so much I bought a second one. It’s muslin cloth - that means it will have wrinkles which you can steam out rather easily. It is durable, it folds up in a rather small space (see the wrinkles comment), and it has very even coloration, no shine to change the color and cause issues with the actual affect you are trying to get. Use it for videos and for live sessions. The loop on the top fits just about any stand you may have or 1.5 inch PVC pipe with ease. I got the second one to have with me on the road so I would not have to constantly take down the primary one in the home studio.

I used this for some green screening, and it worked. The color is high contrast, I had to iron the wrinkles out ahead of time. I wasn't impressed by the materials thickness, it is quite thin, and you can see through it if you have illumination behind the curtain. Not an issue if you hang it on a wall, but if you're using it to separate a room you'll need to completely black out the room you're not recording in. I noticed that I still picked up a little bit of light through the sheet from a white painted surface behind it. The sheet has one end that has a stitched loop for hanging on a rod or wire which is pretty helpful. All in all, it's cheap, and can work for some applications.

excellent and cheap

First off the dimensions were not the 6x9 that they said it was, it was more like 8.25x5.5. One of the sides was sewn so it could hang on a bar, which was not advertised. It was folded instead of rolled meaning you have to iron it, and some of the creases are still very visable. It looks like someone orders these from their home and cuts them themselves. the cut ends were a little frayed. Bottom line: You can only hang it one way because of the sewing, and if you hang it the other way the doubled over fabric makes that area darker than the rest, and for chroma key you need even thickness. The fabric is too light making me question the fact that it is muslin cloth (which is heavier), when it is draped naturally like it should it wrinkles and doesn't fall flat. I have yet to shoot in front of it, but I forsee editing problems like I did when I used a common bed sheet.

I'm an amateur photographer and had plans for this. Our Christmas pictures were taken in our cabin and I didn't want the sad, scraggly-bare-winter-state woods, so I put this behind the window outside. That allowed me to easily photoshop-replace the green with more acceptable images of snow-capped mountains on the background layer. We always add "staged outtakes" and add to the card so I was able to replace the mountains with ChickenZilla and have our son run away from it. I'm sure I'll get much more use out of it. Words on the quality - it has the feel of a cheap sheet and is a bit thin, so I had to wait until it was a little darker outside so as to prevent the daylight from coming through it creating a more problematic chroma key color replacement. I had to add an extra strobe or two inside to compensate, but that was an acceptable trade off for the results (see pictures). If you're doing portrait work with this as a backdrop you might want to worry more about the wrinkles it holds to safe a few extra minutes of building your photoshop masks, but since I just had to knock out the window I wasn't concerned with them. I got more fun comments about this year's card than previous ones, so it was well worth the few bucks. I'm sure it will get lots more use.

Mounted this on the back wall of our office so my daughter could do video projects for school. Mission accomplished! She's getting A's and her fellow students are asking for copies of her work. I second the other comments about rolling this rather than folding. I use the included clips to hold it rolled up on the wall and just roll it down when needed. If you're looking for video editing software and are feeling adventurous check out AVLinux. It's a free OS complete with lots of content creation software, including a full featured video editing suite with chromakey support. We were under a time crunch so eventually just plunked down the cash for Pinnacle 14, but AVLinux really has everything you need.

After reading some of the negative reviews, I was a bit skeptical to buy this product. Some said their backdrop shipped with stains and wasn't a true chromakey green color. Being only $20 dollars, I thought I would take my chances and see for myself if this was a worthy chromakey green screen for my videos. Shipping was flawless, and it arrived in the standard Amazon box and the backdrop was nicely secured inside. No problems there. And after unfolding the backdrop and hanging it inside of my studio, I found this product to be exactly what I paid for - A perfect/inexpensive green screen that wasn't torn or stained, and was the perfect size to fit against one of my studio walls. The backdrop was bright and vivid green and didn't give off that horrible reflection/glare that plastic or paper green screens give off. And just to test it out, I shot a mini video clip with my DSLR and imported it into iMovie using the "green screen" function. Absolutely no problems whatsoever. Overall, this was a good buy for me. Maybe some are into this kind of stuff more professionally than I am, but this chromakey does everything that I want it to do, and for a good price. Just as some advice, be sure to have a sturdy frame to hang your backdrop onto, and some good clamps so you can stretch out the backdrop to reduce wrinkles. And of course, some REALLY good lighting to give your backdrop a nice even color.

Mon fils l’adore!

Excellent results!

All's good. Fast, quality.
