Did you shoot this Olivier? How’d it go? And is it online anywhere for us to see?

Cheers!

Hey Ethan,

I’d agree with Todd and Blaise here. Achieving 4:2:2 is not really the solution you need. Even if you could break the bank to buy an Atomos, that money being spent elsewhere could upskill you to the point that you wouldn’t even really need one.

Yeah, if you can get more distance from yourself and the greenscreen, and the lights and greenscreen, then you’re standing yourself in better stead already. If your greenscreen is too small to allow this, then perhaps it’d be worth trying to pick up a larger one cheap on Ebay – and these things really are/can be cheap nowadays.

And then for lighting, again, you really don’t need expensive lights. There are a bunch of tutorials on youtube to improve lighting skills – some specific to greenscreen, and others likely specific to the minimal resources you’re working with.

And I think downloading Resolve, if you haven’t already, and then trying to adjust your own setup, and start to play around to try to achieve better results. With time and trial and error it’ll come. There’s so many free resources online nowadays that you should defo be able to get there without the 4:2:2, plus you’ll have learnt how to light better along the way.

Hope that helps.

Jamie
