Work in Progress

Stage Virtual Set Green Screen Background Animated and still virtual sets designed for entertainment shows such as music performances, award shows, presentations. The virtual stage set can be customized to fit your needs. We plan to add an animated crowd in front of the virtual stage. Running lights and an animated background will create a multi million dollar event atmosphere for this virtual set. The large screen can be used for close ups of on-stage talents as well as for B footage such as logo animations, video clips and more. We also plan to add animated lower thirds and animation loops for the large screen at the top.

Talk Show Green Screen Background Classic layered virtual talk show set designed to be used with real or virtual furniture primarily for late night talk shows. Furniture of any color or shape will work with this classic background. The desk and the sofa will be on separate layers, so you can use one of the two. We plan to add different backgrounds. You can add backgrounds of your own too.

Virtual Sets Testimonials

The format of our program is a 'news magazine' style, comparable to 60 Minutes or other in depth, hard hitting news programs. The title is Eyewitness Everett. By the end of February 2010 we expect to have out first program aired. In the project development we used: Apple Final Cut Studio 2, Adobe Photoshop CS4 and Ultimatte AdvantEdge.

The biggest part of initiating a television program is finding the right aesthetic that fits the brand. Several days were spent doing 'virtual set research', looking at different software and design companies. It was quite clear which company had the best sets. CG4TV.com offered high resolution images that were vibrant and crisp to fit the professional, polished image we were looking for. The downloadable files with alpha channels, allowed our graphic designer to add elements, depth and realism. Due to budget constraints, our only option was to do all keying in post production. This would allow us to tweak our graphics and fit them into the virtual sets.

Matching camera angles proved to be a challenge, we were looking to do more than just a flat straight angle. It took a good deal of time to set up lighting and get the cameras to match the sets, but once this was accomplished, the results were very impressive. Shadows, zooms, and pans were layered in Apple Motion. This added to our post production time, but increased the realism to another level. The virtual set has really added to the production value and feel of the program.

Sincerely,
Stephen M. Kessinger


We needed an instant low-cost solution to make our brand new This Week In Space show look like national television, even if it is actually being produced on a laptop. CG4TV.com's store had the perfect virtual set and a background for us. We now use it in every show for everything from titles to commercials.

In addition to this virtual sets were a great solution for our internationally renowned television anchor Miles O'Brien. Due to his busy globe-trotting schedule he cannot be at a real physical set at all. Now he simply carries an easy portable green screen with him, shoots his segments on the road, and we put him on the same set for consistency no matter where in the world he is that week.

Our minimal investment in CG4TV backgrounds and virtual sets paid off in leaps and bounds. Our show had a meteoric rise to the top place in iTunes, caused Google/YouTube to ask us to partner with them, and attracted multiple established media outlets to embed in our show.
