The fantasy of a flying car is closer than ever to becoming a reality. Molta Media goes behind-the-scenes to see plans for the new vehicle which is expected to fly off the production line in 2011.

Green Screens: How Do They Work?

After seeing a green screen in action for the first time during the ‘flying car’ shoot, our intern wondered how it worked. Here’s the scoop:

A chroma key, or most commonly known as a blue or green screen was created in the late 1930’s for special effects. It is a technique for compositing two images or frames together, in which a color from one image is removed revealing another image behind it. Larry Butler, who won the Academy Award for special effects for The Thief of Bagdad, developed the blue/green screen in 1930’s.

According to www.borisfx.com, the principal subject is filmed or photographed against a background consisting of a single color or a relatively narrow range of colors, usually blue or green because these colors are considered to be the furthest away from skin tone. The background is then changed on the computer through an editing program.

It’s very interesting to see how green screens work and how they started. Learn more about our production capabilities at: http://moltamedia.com

The E-portance of Corporate Video

It is no secret video has become the currency of digital marketing. The distribution of corporate video has gone from company Websites and microsites directly into the hands of consumers. On Facebook, Twitter, blogs and online ad networks, customers share, comment and learn from corporate videos. And with advancements in cell phone technology and ground-breaking devices like the iPad, the importance of video to businesses will continue to grow.
