Step by step tutorial on how to light your greenscreen using guerrilla lights. With some ingenuous ideas, like using some cardboard and aluminum foil as a reflector, using some clamp lights and among other things to successfully light the greenscreen. If you prefer reading I invite you to visit my blog and read the article “Lighting a Greenscreen a la Guerrillera Style” ht.ly TUTORIAL TRIVIA: There a three mistakes (that I know of. One of them on purpose) in this video tutorial; two continuity errors and a nasty jump cut. I challenge you to find it and post it below in the comments.

    @nihon94b I would say that Adobe Premiere Elements, Vegas Movie Studio or Pinnacle Studio (all of them for around $100). Of course, this are consumer level NLE and they have a lot of limitations. If you want to do complicated chroma keying you will need something like Adobe After Effects.

    @lomaymi I hope you do not mind my comments. I appreciate your follow up and you nicely clear my doubt. Not only your tutorial but your acting is also nice. Please make more tutorial.

    @nihon94b Actually there is a story for that. The greenscreen I have is 10×20 feet and is so heavy that it rolls down on its own. The only way to fix that was to tie it up by each side using some rope. I came up with a better solution after I finish this tutorial by using two spring clamps in each corner. Surprisingly the wrinkles didn’t affect the keying, but wrinkles should always be avoided whenever possible.

    Nice funny and informative video. Just one thing, don’t you think the green background should be free from wrinkles?

    @oxlopez The funny part got it from you :-) and the “use whatever you find to do something” (without considering any future consequences) from uncle Samuelito.

    Very practical, informational and empowering for a simple green screen wannabe to move forward. Totally entertaining and fun video. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it, hearing the suggestions, seeing the humorous elements and viewing the results sample. Keep this up, Luis, and you’ll have a valuable library of how-to resource materials you can offer for profit.
