  • With the rise in popularity of Twitch streaming or becoming a CZcams content creator, green screens are becoming more common for your everyday creators. But what's the difference between a cheap green screen and a known gaming branded green screen from Elgato? We take a look at the two ends of the spectrum and everything in between and give some helpful tips for how to use them.

    I am just getting started myself and spending a lot of time researching. This is great info and pretty damn hilarious too! Well done and thanks for the info! Now I'm off to get a green screen or a giant cat that wears sunglasses...whichever is cheaper :)

    You have great content, humor, nice quality, good editing and good reviews.
    Only point of critic is the ‘setup time’, you had to unlock the hinges, open the ‘door’ and stand out the feet, it wasn’t 3 seconds, probably around the same time as the other.
    Keep it up and will see you grow faster really soon my man!

    Great video comparison, thanks. I have a similar (but possibly worse) set up right now, and that's just a green screen cloth that I drape over some elevated dining room chairs. Looking at maybe getting the cheaper option here as the cloth creases and is so thin that lighting it evenly is difficult (light bleeds through from behind it too)

    Excellent work! I was looking at precisely these two and was able to make a decision with your video. Have any of you used two of these Elgato screens side by side/offset from each other a few inches?

    • @MarkWattsVLG
      @MarkWattsVLG  Před 4 lety +2

      Not tried it but the base is wider than the screen so there would be a gap if they were side by side, offsetting them might interfere with the light distribution but if you've got a few decent lights it should be salvageable

    Hello. Excellent video. I’ve recently bought a similar green screen from Amazon but mine has the blue as well as green side when flipped round. The only slight stipulation is there’s no way of co erring the floor and I’m slightly tall. Are there a way round these small issues? It’s excellent how it’s portable and able to fold away in a bag.

    I picked up the Elgato one since it was on sale for black Friday, MUCH larger and longer than I expected which is nice, but my current configuration is way too cramped to use it to it's full potential, which will be resolved once I move into my own place and can setup a little studio, so far I've only used it with OBS and it does really well! great video! liked and subscribed.

    Is chroma key paint expensive? The appartment I'm renting has a greenish color paint on it already, when I took a picture I could replace the background very similarly to a green screen. However, when I did the same with video I got a bit of a hazy look, especially if the image I replaced the green with was not bright. I imagine this is due to lighting??? Thanks for the video!

    • @MarkWattsVLG
      @MarkWattsVLG  Před 4 lety +3

      The reason bright green or bright blue is used for Chroma Key is it's easier for software to differentiate between than and any other colours in your video. If you're renting i'd maybe look at rolls of chroma key paper you can hang!
