Good tutorial on greenscreen using table cloth.

I was looking up greenscreen cloth when I found this site. They used a green table cloth from a party story for the green screen instead of the expensive stuff. Used about 8 layers of different action like rain, smoke, bullet hit window, etc layered with a doll (the actress). Check it out, tell me what you think www.filmtunes.net/filmschool3.html You have to type in the whole thing because I tried to just type in filmtunes.net and it got me to the company site but couldn't get to the tutorial. Weird, but that's how it worked.

Go to the bottom of page, to the right and hit "click here" to restart lesson. For some reason the lesson starts at the end not the begining. So you have to restart it to see the whole thing.

Umm, it's alright. Interesting story, it's like Chucky!

Just what is the "expensive stuff", anyways?

I was looking into green screen cloth. Was really a huge expense. $27 USD but had problem finding the site again.

$27 isn't too bad... but why not just make your own up then? Build a giant convection of cardboard and spray paint it a flat green, blue, red, magenta, whatever.

true, but I think some of the reason was portability.
