We filmed today at Turner Field for some television commercials starring an Atlanta Braves pitcher. I don't know that I can say who the player is - but hopefully you will see the footage on TV for Landmark Dodge in Athens, Ga. And if you are looking for a new car, you should visit these folks because they have some pretty sweet Chargers over there.

Perhaps you've seen websites that feature an on screen guide who walks onto your computer (usually at the bottom of the screen). We will be filming Monday for just that purpose. The trick to creating that effect is to film against a green backdrop, and then key out the green background later in post-production. The goal is to be able to see the website behind the guide and not solid green or white. Green screen video can be tricky, but with solid, continuous lighting on the screen, proper separation of the the talent from the screen, and good keying software, it can be done successfully.
 

We will be filming a memorial service this weekend for a client's recently deceased mother. Many people wonder why anyone would want to film a  memorial service, thinking that it seems macabre. In this case, the client is filming it for her brother, who is disabled and unable to travel from California to attend the funeral for his own mother. We will be filming the service and creating a DVD which will be sent to him to view, and hopefully bring him some peace of mind.
