  • green screen body suits?

    Posted by Bobby Circle on December 7, 2005 at 9:38 pm

    hi, i wasn’t sure where to post this, but figured someone here may be able to help.

    i’ve seen full-body chromakey unitards for sale somewhere on the internet, but can’t seem to find them now.

    does anyone know of a chromakey supplies co. that sells green unitards for green screen work? note that i’ve perused the various spandex fetish sites, but their stuff tends to be kind of shiny.

    thanks a lot!

    Did a bit of price-quoting/research for the TV station I work for on a chroma-key unitard…unfortunately budget got cut and the money for the unitard never materialized…but I did keep all the info i collected..
    Try http://www.spandexman.com
    He has a lot of different styles of body suits and various colors..plus after emailing him I found out that he has made body suits for chroma-keying before and can suggest the best color to use. Plus the prices are pretty hard to beat.
    Spandexman even mailed me a couple of samples to try on my chroma wall to see which color would work best with my situation.
    Or try http://www.costumer.com
    They are not as consumer friendly as spandexman but they do have a Mens Long-Sleeve Footed Unitard for $55 in various shades of green/blue.
    Otherwise if you feel like making your own body-suit then go to
    http://www.baerfabrics.com
    Lots of colors for the 4-way stretch Lycra-Spandex. Fabric is 60 inches wide and is $15.25 a yard…depending on your model I would say roughly need 4-5 yards of fabric but double check with a seamstress to be sure…
    Hope that helps you out…

    I’m sorry, I’m still stuck on the “i’ve perused the various spandex fetish sites…”

    I know this is an old post, but in case anyone finds it in a search, there is a company that sells bodysuits here:
    https://store02.prostores.com/servlet/tubetape/the-38/Video-Green-Full-Cover/Detail

    I don’t know if they are good, I am not a customer, but for what it’s worth.

    Also, I am interested in a chromakey Balaclava or one hole ski mask preferable spandex if anyone knows of a supplier.

    Cheers,

    Paul
