  Looking for royalty free interior chroma key backdrops

  Posted by Vince Becquiot on June 11, 2008 at 4:54 pm

  I did take a few myself, but time isn’t on our side here. I am looking for nice (royalty free) interior pics home, office, etc.

  These are close up interviews, so the angle is less of an issue.

  The other problem is that I often end up fast bluring images, but it looks a little fake because of the lack of depth, so pics “shot” out of focus would even be better.

  Anyone selling those, or should I start a new niche business?

  You can always build a faux depth matte for the backdrop, or use vpe export out of Photoshop. They look somewhat staggeringly real — in contrast to a projection map in a 3d app. Throw in some depth cue and get some real hex highlights instead of the ae 3d cam circular highlights.

  There are tons of free resources! Just google it!
  I use http://www.sxc.hu a lot.

  Also, color correction to match the backdrop is important, as is light-wrapping the talent to the backdrop…or is it light-wrapping the backdrop to the talent? Who cares, you catch my drift.
