green screens
Digital background enablers
Green screens are bright green backdrops used in film and video production, allowing editors to replace the green with other imagery through digital compositing.
The technique, called chroma keying, works because the vivid green rarely matches skin tones or costumes.
Weather forecasters stand before green screens to appear in front of maps.
As a verb, to green-screen is to film against such a backdrop: They green-screened the entire chase sequence.
