Hi, Steve!

Preproduction and R&D are the keys, that's for sure. I know a lot more now
than I did during preproduction and production. Next time things will be
better...

Do you have any photos of your setup? How large is your greenscreen, and
how large is your bluescreen? Do you have a room or space dedicated to your

>What software are you using?

Adobe Premiere and Adobe After Effects (standard -- no prodution bundle) --
how about you?

Have a good one,

Greg
