Green Screen Removal Photoshop

In this tutorial, I show you how to remove a green screen in Photoshop using in two scenarios.

1.       Where the green screen has been lit perfectly.

2.       Where the green screen hasn’t been lit so well – the more realistic way!

We’ll be looking at how to use different selection methods in Photoshop such as:

·         Using the new select and mask future

·         Selecting a colour range

·         Adding different colours and tones of colours to a selection

·         Expanding and feathering a selection

It can be difficult to remove a green screen from a background in photoshop, especially when the green screen wasn’t lit properly, but there are ways around and hopefully this tutorial will help you out.
