Very interesting.

As a costumer aka "wardrobe person," I have a tip. If you see no green on any actor in the scene or on any props that they actually handle, then the odds are it was green screen, which would render any variation of green invisible. You'd see thru the person. If you see no blue, then they used chromakey blue. Blue used to be more the rule, but when they realized that fewer people looked good in green & fewer other colors included a heavy dose of green (blue is a primary color), the industry shifted to green screen.

Love the technology, but scary. TV and movies can sell us anything they have on their agenda, commercial or political, just by faking any scenario. As we all know, the media does not just report the news, they create it.

These magic makers of vision show how it is done.
For me at times there is no fantasy or amazement.

I love watching tv and looking for multiple shadows when someone is walking down the street ! It's so easy to spot that anyone can see just by paying attention. You can almost envision the crews running down the street with the subjects.

The next time I see the camera go from David Letterman to Paul Shaffer on 'The Late Show' I'm going to yell at my TV, "green screen!" >>>> Yea Paul Scaffer would be a figment of anyones imagination! LOL

THE WORST IS THAT DAVID BLAINE USES IT.

WoW!

What ever happened to the demo reel from Atmosphere Visual Effects? That was similar, but in some ways a little more impressive. (The music was certainly better.) I can't find it anywhere. It highlighted virtual set work on Galactica, and exteriors on Stargate and Dead Like Me.
