What is green screen?
A green screen is a key component in a film and television production process known as “chroma keying,” in which foregrounded action is combined with separately filmed or constructed background footage. The process works by filming actors in front of large, bright green backdrops, then isolating and removing that green color range, and replacing it with a different background. It has been utilized for many purposes in filmmaking, making characters and scenes appear to take place in far-off or perilous locations—when in fact the footage was shot in a studio in front of a green screen.
