Green Screen practice

Today I decided to have a go at using a green screen, I want to see if it would be something that I could use for my music video.

I used this article to help me get rid of the green background in Premiere Pro:

How to Chroma Key in Adobe Premiere Pro

Chroma keying is usually something that is done in After Effects, but sometimes, whether the simplicity of the project or just the fact that you do not want to send your footage to After Effects, you'll want to chroma key in Premiere Pro. Premiere Pro comes with a great keyer built right in called "ultra key."
Here's a short video, note this is only for practice purposes and trying out the keying setting on Premiere Pro. After trying out the green I don't think I would use it in the music video, because it would be hard to make it look like the two aren't different images due to lighting consistency, and I don't think it would fit in with the narrative/song I'm thinking about making a music video for. Taking this into account I decided to use an extremely unrealistic background of space for this trial piece. Although I am glad that I tried it out, so I know in advance what kind of look it creates and how to chroma key in future.

Casting

There are four main roles to be filled in my music video; these being the protagonist, singer, drummer and bassist. The other minor roles are characters in the classroom scene who are part of the 'friend group'. So far I've got all the main roles filled and one minor role. For each of these roles I've given the actors an information pack with the filming dates, their characters roles, costume, and the outline for the music video.  Protagonist: The protagonist from 10woodre Drummer: The drummer from 10woodre Bassist: The bassist from 10woodre Singer: The singer from 10woodre Friend 1: The friend from 10woodre
