Default Re: Replacing a background using gray or green backgrounds (chromakey).

Hi, I just wanted to say thanks for posting this. Though I do background manipulation quite a bit, I've never shot green screen, and have been considering it. I think I'll get a dark gray BG instead, and just deal with any issues of gray "leaking" into the image of the person. Should be easy cleanup. Right now I do white or black, and it's challenging sometime to "push" the background really far away (like white to black or the other way around). Using gray should provide some balance.

Thanks!
