Green Screen photography at the Chronicles of Narnia premiere

Another interesting green screen job for us. We were invited to cover the opening of Sky's new Screen 11 at the O2 arena. This is the biggest 3D cinema screen in Europe and is absolutely stunning!

We were setup in the VIP area with our green screen studio and instant printing kit. We had worked with 20th Century Fox on the original posters of the Voyage of the Dawn Treader as this film is titled. They provided us with layered artwork and we set it all up so we could put kids into the main ship or the smaller boat.

We automated the whole process for speed using a batch file to combine the layers into a composite image. This gave a great effect and the kids were amazed to see photographs of themselves on the Dawn Treader or in the smaller boat with the actors!

The whole process was so fast we didn't even have a queue so we were getting people from the face painting and magician queues and photographing them. Again brilliantly organised by Tania and Emma. We even had time for a meal at the O2 before packing up and getting home.
