Green Screen Hollywood - Brief History

Green screen Hollywood technology, a. K. A chroma key is a methodology utilized by filmmakers to mix 2 separate pictures together. This works by making the background ( a solid color which is generally green or blue ) transparent to show another image which is the actual background that'll be shown on film. This technique of filming is also known as color keying, blue screen, and color separation overlay ( CSO ). It was basically used for weather reports. Forecasters were shot in front of chroma key screens and the background got replaced by actual maps that indicate weather predictions. The chroma key technique is also used by filmmakers and photographers alike.

The green screen first made its appearance in the 1930's at RKO Radio pictures. The background used back then was blue. This method of film making was developed in order to create special effects for the film "The burglar of Bagdad." except for the chroma key method, filmmakers trusted a very boring and time consuming process called "travelling matte." This made transition such as "wipes" possible .

Larry servant is understood to be responsible for pioneering the blue screen technique. In reality, he even took home an Academy Award for visible effects for his work in "The burglar of Bagdad." After his fulfillment in the 30's, butler was the first person to use chroma key technology in Technicolor, leading the way for modern green screen Hollywood technology.

The first films to profit from Chroma Key technology was the movie adaptation of Ernest Hemingway famous novel, "The Old Man and the Sea," starring Spencer Tracy. After the "Old Man and the Sea," more and more films employed the chroma key methodology. Some famous film that employ chroma key technology are The Empire Strikes Back, Lord of the Rings, Titanic, Star Trek, and even 300. Films that make use of CGI or PC generated images are also made with the assistance of green screen technology. This is how having out of this world settings and extraordinary creatures can be shown on film.

Today, green screen Hollywood technology isn't just limited to giant budget flats. It is also used in photography. From the initial blue screen, green was used later on because filmmakers discovered that a green background doesn't need tedious lighting. Cameras are most delicate to this color, so the result of films shot on green screens are less difficult to work with and manipulate. While acknowledging that, chroma key technology is now known to photographers and filmmakers' best friend.
