I filmed two speeches the other day and used my reflecmedia greenscreen (which is actually grey). The way it works is that there is a lightring that fits around the camera lens which emits green light. This green light is reflected off the millions of little crystals embedded into the reflecmedia screen creating a consistent green that can be keyed out using After Effects - or rather Keylight.

In addition to the using the green screen, I used a great piece of software which I have mentioned before called podcast autocue which allows our talent to read speeches and prepared material from an autocue. What I need to do is connect up an external monitor and locate it behind the camera so that the talent's eyes are reading the text looking into the camera, not looking down as they did in this piece.

This was all shot in a 4*3 metre office which we hope may become a mini TV studio.
