Finding Background (Preliminary Task)

 

I found the challenge of changing the greenscreen to a background with relevance to the interviewee a difficult task. I asked the interviewee what she thought would be an appropriate background and she thought perhaps next to a fire or in a living room would be great, this is due to the subject we speak about being a very calm and relaxed topic so a fire I felt would match that feeling. However, when it came to adding the fire to the greenscreen I felt that the effect it gave was not the standard I wanted as it made her look like she was in the fire and very unrealistic. Due to this in the end I decided after various experimenting with backgrounds I would change the green screen to a solid black to just make the interviwee stand out so we focus just on her and the subject she speaks about. This process has taught me for the real thing to film in a place with an background as I feel this would work much better with the equiptment I have to use.
