If you thought [**Home Tips With Jim**](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,61703.0.html) was bad, what do you think happens when he gets hold of a greenscreen?

Well, first he learns how to change a background:

Then, he learns to fly:

And then, he puts it all together into something so terribly random, that not even HTWJ can be worse:

LOL @ wearing green shirts while using greenscreen.

Also, if you want to improve the quality with the shadows messing things up, diffuse your lighting. I helped a friend do this, we rigged some bright halogen lights and pointed them away from the screen then deflected the light back to the screen using simple poster board pieces. (His studio was painted in his garage, the floor and the walll; the lights were hung from the roof rafters… it wasn't cheap but wasn't expensive either.)

Haha! I said the same thing. I mean about the shirt, not the other shit. :3\. So if the price wasn't cheap, nor expensive, it was average? ;).

Will have to give that a shot (diffusing the lighting).

Well it depends on the lights you get; I'm sure you can cut costs by getting some cheap lights, since for the diffusion pads we just used foam poster-board and wire coat hangers basically. But for greenscreen you need a well-lit area that is very bright but you can't have shadows being cast.

You expect him to explore the world without proper eye protection?!?!
