  • where can I find cool fake backgrounds for chromakeyed interviews?

    Having keyed the green out of my backgrounds, I was just wondering if anyone can tell me where I might find some great fake backgrounds to superimpose for interview situations?

    Is there a web site where you can download for example fake window effects…light hitting a wall through a window so that you see the window shadow in the background?

    Or perhaps just a beam of light that you can angle any way you wish?

    Does anyone know what web site might offer this or that type of software?

    My best luck has been with stock photos, particularly ones of hotel lobbys. In most shots of homes or offices the camera angle is either too high or too low, but hotel lobby shots tend to be from about mid hight so it fits the perspective of a sit down interview better. Plus you get interesting but not over-done architecture and decor.

    You can do a lot of that yourself with just photohop, Apple Motion, and the Boris effects in your NLE already.. But for some inspiration, look at Rosco’s gobo collection, then maybe look at Digital Juice.
