    Hello to all.

    I need to film a cell phone in various situations and then in post, take out the screen and replace it with what we want. In your opinion, is loading a green screen image with track points the best way to film the phone for the post work or, is there a better way? I see tons of people filming a phone with a green screen color on the phone such as this:

    We’ll be using Mocha and After effects for post. Any tips or tricks would be much appreciated.

    Thanks so much.

    Green with dark green crosses gives sufficient surface detail for Mocha to figure things out and because they’ll probably key out cleanly, requires less clean up when the fingers cross over the tracking markers.
