How We Do Greenscreen (on the cheap)

-->

Ok extending out from our post on Affiliate Tool Generator this is how we have our recording area setup for recording on the cheap.

You can enhance this setup to do better quality videos and photos (we do), but this can get you started on a lower budget.

Let’s add up ALL the costs for doing a Green Screen Video

Green Screen - Ebay - $12 + $12 shipping
(3) 500 watt Halogen shop lights - Menards/Home Dept/Lowes - $8 each
(2) 150 watt Halogen shop lights - Menards/Home Dept/Lowes - $6 each
Set of spring clamps - Menards/Home Dept/Lowes - $15
(2) screw in eyelets - Menards/Home Dept/Lowes - $2
Set of hook end bungie cords - Menards/Home Dept/Lowes - $10
(1) 12′ pine 1″x2″ board - $4

$91 so far

Now you are going to need a video camera.
Our options are:
- use your home video camera ($0 additional)
- Flip Video video camera - Sam’s/Walmart - $160
- Buy a New Video camera - $300

Let’s say we don’t have a camera and we need to buy the Flip Camera.

$251 so far

Now go get some software:
Adobe Premier (video editing) - Free Trial
SnagIt 8 (screen image capture)- Free Trial

So you can make an Greenscreen video for $91 - $251+
(and about a day to learn the software)

Get the setup in the next post!
