Q. How do I light a green screen with the minimum number of lights? Could it be done with just two lights, and what other kit might I need? A. The key to lighting a green screen is to make sure the lighting is even, avoiding any hotspots or dark areas as well as shadows on the backdrop. A soft light source will be best for this, and if you have two lights, then one either side of the green screen should work nicely. Just

make sure they are of the same colour temperature. If you have a hard light source, acquire a softbox or some sort of diffusion to help with even illumination. The addition of an eggcrate grid on your diffusion will also minimise any light spilling onto the subject and the surrounding environment.
