Take the easiest to get items and come out with a professional resulting unit.</p> <p>The most intriguing part to me is the white bedsheet as a diffuser. Very simple and effective.</p> <p>Thanks for posting this.</p> <hr /><a name="a2341_3"></a><p><b>From: UncleSteve</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=2341.3">#3</a>]<br /> 19 Nov 2005<br /><b>To: Harvey only (HARVEY-ONLY)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=2341.2">#2</a>] 20 Nov 2005</p> One simple addition would be to get an additional backdrop that is made from the "green screen" fabric to make it easier to compose/extract/etc. the object being photographed when doing compostions for the final image.<br /> <hr /><a name="a2341_4"></a><p><b>From: Dave Jones (DAVERJ)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=2341.4">#4</a>]<br /> 9 Feb 2007<br /><b>To: UncleSteve</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=2341.3">#3</a>] 9 Feb 2007</p> <p>Green screens (and blue screens) are not a simple thing to master. The color must be a very specific hue to work well, and even lighting is critical, using lights of a specific color temperature.</p> <p>For most product photos a better alternative for dropping out backgrounds, at least for print or web images, is a white screen with a lot of light pointed at it, but moved back from the product so it doesn't rear light the object. That way the background washes away into pure white.</p> <hr /><p align="center">Show messages: <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=2341.1">All</a>  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=2341.1">1</a>  2-4</p> <h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2024 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
