You learn things every day. Here is what I learned yesterday on a green set.
Tighter fitting clothes are better than loose fitting clothes.
Darker hair is better than lighter hair.
Hair should all be in once “clump” with as little friz or loose hair as possible. This is not a requirement, but makes the video editing a lot easier with a minimum of seizure flicker.
Reflective materials, even slightly reflective materials like nylon, are no good to varying degrees.
Under lighting is a must. It takes the black out of cast shadows under the chin and around the eyes.
Hopefully I’ll be applying this knowledge again soon. I had a ton of fun working on set. I can’t wait to post the final video and link to the site.
