Was able to test out filming against an 86inch television last night hooked up to my PC so I could display any background I choose, in my ongoing mission to remove the need to spend hours and hours keying greenscreen footage, and losing fine details such as hair and transparency, there are still some issues with this method but I think the results and the time saved make up for it! Enjoy! 😁
I was able to load up some Unreal Engine Star Trek levels that I've spent the last several months creating to be used as backdrops for Deception 3, mainly the Excelsior Bridge, the Sickbay, and a random corridor, I also tested out various other images and videos that I grabbed from the internet such as sunsets and also a Romulan bridge from Star Trek Online, showing that even lower quality game assets still produce high quality results when shot properly ☺️
(Also please ignore the unshaven beard, tired eyes, and unkempt hair, although it does give a good indication of how we can still keep fine details such as loose hair strands using this method instead of greenscreen keying... that's my excuse anyway 😅)
Shot on a Canon EOS R5 at 4k resolution and 24fps using a 50mm f1.4 lens with an EF-RF adapter.
