April Casting Call ::: COLLEGE :::

Open Casting Call: April 14 - May 2, 2008

College Lifestyle Series

We're doing a college series (lifestyle video of things like: talking on a cell phone, hanging with friends, doing computer and book work, etc.) and we need lots of models for several upcoming shoots. 

.

Open to: College-aged adults (look like you're 18-24)

• Both men and women are needed

• Every size, body type and ethnicity

.

Pay: $10/hour OR Trade for DVD of footage (This means you can either have the final video clips we use of you on a DVD or take the cold hard cash... or check, in this case.)

Please Note: There are no Travel Expenses paid, just the hourly rate starting at the actors arrival at downtown Orlando studio.

.

Requirements: • No previous acting or modeling experience required. 

• You must be willing to sign two Clipnic forms: Model Release and Model Agreement (these forms can be found on our main website, so you can read them before you sign them). You must be 18 or older to sign, unless you're going to bring your parent/guardian with you to the shoot to sign with you.

• Actor/model will provide his/her own wardrobe, hair & makeup. Any style of clothes, accessories or hair. We just can't show anything that is trademarked, like logos or labels.

Doctor Greenscreen Settings

Hey kids! 

Here are the three simple steps for your Final Cut Pro greenscreen settings that will get you an INSTANT and super clean key on your Doctor clips.

:: 1st ::  Add the Color Smoothing - 4:2:2  (In the Effects Bin, in the Key folder)

:: 2nd ::  Add Chroma Keyer (not the blue/green screen)

• Click on Visual button

• Use eye dropper to choose green background

• On the top color slider, widen out so the left is just about to blue and the right is just about to yellow (see the screenshot below) 

• Drag the saturation all the way to the right, and almost all the way to the left 

• Widen the Luma so it looks like above photo

• Edge Thin UP one click

• Softening UP two clicks

  (Leave Enhance at default)

:: 3rd ::  Add Spill Supressor - Green

• Make the setting: 4 (this depends on your BG - the lighter your Background clip, the less of this you want. The darker it is, the more you want)

And that should get you pretty close! These are the settings I used to create the clip in the link below, so you can see how clean these settings get the key. But you can tweak until it looks just right on your background. Enjoy!
