Life in a green screen studio can be exciting, if you're not one of the cameramen, that is. It can be so lifeless and boring to keep arranging and rearranging the lighting and all the other apparatus that is there in the studio. On the other hand, for you and I who watch only the final product, life in a studio (that boasts of the finest quality of green screens) looks to be very exciting. One wonders how it is possible to capture on film a person being chased by a tiger or something much worse.
There are photographs in newspapers and magazines of football players at a match. Sometimes, there is a image of a particular player whose expression is caught for eternity, or so we think. It is sort of possible this expression was caught in the vicinity of a green screen studio and not on the soccer field. An image of the soccer match in progress is superimposed on the green screen that has already served as the background in the studio. The football player is asked to stand in front of the screen, a look of ecstasy on his face, to replicate that which he had when he made that brilliant pass in an important league match against an arch rival team.
Of course, not all footage is orchestrated on a green screen studio; there are a few photographers who risk their lives to capture live action on film. These are people who belong to a totally different breed. Their love for the art of photography can take them to places that they haven't ever been to and get them involved in situations that would often even cost them their lives. For instance, award winning photographers don't win awards based totally on stills that are taken in a studio with a green screen. Rather, they win awards based mostly on photos taken out in actuality without the special effects that are conveniently and easily created using a green screen studio.
In a similar way, there are many photograph pros who are sure that it is critical to capture wild animals on film, risking their lives in the process. One classic example of this is the doleful story of Steve Irwin, who was fatally attacked by a stingray. There is no chance of trying to replicate this type of a taking place within a green screen studio; unless of course, someone is making an attempt to make a film on Irwin, whereby the actor has to enact the final moments of the 'croc hunter' as Steve Irwin was fondly called.
Here, the actor will get asked to do all of the movements and facial expressions that Irwin would have demonstrated in his last moments against the backdrop of a green screen studio. Once this is done, the superimposing of the underwater battle between the stingray and the dying Irwin would be carried out by the film modifying and compositing techniques that are assisted by the most recent software, available in the movie industry today.
