Do I have to use a green screen to photograph my subjects?

In short, no.  You just need to be able to extract your subject.


Photoshop is an amazing program for composites and effects and there are many techniques you can use to extract a subject from a background. You can photograph a subject in the middle of a street or a forest and still remove the background. However, if you are looking for a fast easy way then you should consider using a green screen. Green screen is the industry standard for extractions. Any Hollywood movie, special effects, and weatherman uses green screen.


Why? With the help of computers you can near instantly extract a subject from a decently lit green screen. Green screen even enables you to batch extract folders of hundreds of subjects while you get a cup of coffee. This makes it the ideal option for photographers looking for something amazing to offer their sports teams, schools, children, seniors, and clubs.


Green screen is the perfect option for anyone who wants to create a cool composite. Instant extractions allow you to immediately get to the fun part of compositing instead of spending hours of frustrating work on an extraction.
