Shooting Fantasy Photos With A Green Screen Program
To begin with, there is the fantasy niche known as"sword and sorcery". Some examples include the role playing game"Dungeons And Dragons" and stories such as the"Lord Of The Rings". To take these kinds of pictures, shoot the customer in full garb ( patois for period costume ) in front of the green screen, holding the weapon of their choice,eg a sabre, bow and arrow, or wand. Then, use digital backgrounds such as stunning nature scenes and old architecture ( particularly castles ) Then get your green screen program out and work your magic from there. Tip : If the customer wants to have that soft paranormal look, take a bit of nylon and strap it to your camera lens with an elastic tie. Instant softness and puzzle added.Another well-liked fantasy niche is that of sci-fi. The more apparent of this genre would be"Star Trek","Star Wars" and"Babylon Five". However [*COMMA] this category also includes"Dr. Who" ( a time and inter-dimensional show ) and steam punk ( Victorian time running today"s technology with steam ). Within of this niche there are thousands of cos-players ( those that enjoy putting on a costume whenever they can ) who adore having their picture taken. Some ideas for amazing pictures would be : For space travel - like Star Trek - assume the observation deck ( a large window with a star field behind it ) or Ten-Forward cantina ( shoot a modern bar for the background ). For steam punk, choose interiors of old Victorian houses.
A niche that is regularly mixed in with these two previous ones, yet also deserves it"s own class, is that of fairy tales. These are the footage of fairy people and other delicate creatures. For these use mystical landscapes that give a feeling of mystery with just a hint of mischief in store. However [*COMMA] don"t think that fairy tales are only for small children, nor just for cos-players. Another group of people who love these types of pictures are female high school seniors. Consider shooting their portrait with them in their promenade dress, but then placing them in this mystical land. This guarantees you provide them with instant sorcery and joyful memories.
Eventually, the last niche which can fit inside of all of these, yet is also all by itself, is that known as Anime and video game cos-play. For these kinds of photos, look into plenty of Asian inspired locations ( both interior and exterior ) as well as decrepid locations such as an old warehouse or the remains of an ancient civilization.
Overall the thing to remember when shooting a fantasy photo is that irrespective of how strange or outlandish the costume might be and no matter where in the world these characters should be, as long as you can make the picture look believable to the customer, you"ll have repeat business for years to come. It is very easy to make your pictures look plausible with a green screen program.
