Good evening and welcome to CNN..N...N...NN...N.... I'm Arthur N.E. Moore-Donuts and in
tonight's breaking news, Internet giant Google announced the sale of YouTube to
the former music television network MTV.
MTV announced later in the day that they
would be rebranding the platform as the "All Ariana Grande network"
If you want to learn how to make it look like you're doing a newscast using green screen
effects stick around I shall show you how hit the subscribe button and click
the notification bell to be part of the conversation so one of the biggest
tricks about setting up a green screen effect is the lighting all I have behind
me is a very simple green cloth it's something that you can either buy online
through Amazon as part of a chroma key kit or you can just go to your fabric
store and buy any kind of green cloth Green tends to be a great color because
it doesn't clash with a lot of other things that you're wearing and you can
eliminate it easily in the chroma key feature now you could do it with blue or
red but you just have to make sure there's none of those colors anywhere
else in your shot because you're going to eliminate that color from your
footage I want to thank the good people at movavi for sponsoring today's video
once you have your green screen footage shot what you want to do is find your
background image or footage and bring that into movavi first that will lay the
bed for the newscast clip that you're trying to recreate I found the footage I
used for free at pixabay.com and the music track from the YouTube audio
library I'll put links to both down in the description next bring your green
screen footage into the track above the background footage once you have it in
place double left click on your green screen footage to access the video and
audio options in the upper left in the video tab scroll down and click on the
chroma key feature here's where you'll eliminate the green background and allow
the track underneath it to show through at the top where it says pick a color to
make transparent make sure the color box is highlighted in yellow
you'll notice that your preview screen is also highlighted in yellow and will
let you know that movavi is ready to select your color move your cursor over
to the preview window and you'll see that it turns into a plus sign just
place that anywhere in the green area of the preview window try to find a spot
that seems to be the mid-tone of your green color if your green has any
inconsistencies like mine does then just left-click once and the
background will be eliminated I have two separate lights coming down on me to
really illuminate me and two other lights illuminating the background the
trick here is to get the background green as consistent as you can get it so
that when you go to remove it it's as close to one shade of green as possible
and not a lot of shadows and highlights you can see my cloth has wrinkles and
whatnot in it if I were really trying to make something perfect I would iron
those out and I'd really stretch that tight so that it was as smooth and
consistent a color green as possible you can dial in the tolerance noise edges
and opacity to fine-tune the effect to your liking there isn't one perfect
setting that works every time but the better job you did lighting and
preparing your footage the easier it will be to dial this in the overlays I
used in the upper right corner were just images I placed into tracks above my
main footage if you single left click on them in your timeline it will allow you
to highlight and resize them up in your preview window I just shrank them down
and stuck them up in the corner to highlight this completely ridiculous
news story I was babbling on about I got everything aligned to where I
wanted it and voila
