This was a first test with a green screen - I stood too close and I didn't position myself properly.  I shot on an iPhone with a tripod.  I used a bicycle helmet mirror to position myself in front of the camera.  I have since purchased a larger mirror.  Turns out Final Cut Pro X is fault tolerant on bad greenscreen setups.  Still I went out and purchased a used steamer off of Craig's List.  More videos ahead!

Thanks to Howard Rheingold for the lights!

I will upload the raw greenscreen footage so you might hack it and add a different background.  Check http://links.net/ and please email [email protected] if you make anything to re-share.
