I am looking for the best way to achieve the style of the old Apple Commercials directed by Errol Morris.

You can see an example of what I am trying to do from this website : http://ellenfeiss.net/commercials.php

I am not exactly sure how to set this up, it does not have to be very large since i will only be filming a maximum of 2 people at a time.

Any advice on how to setup a set like this and how to light it would be great!

Thanks in advance,

Hello, I am a film student and I some experience with green screen and lighting. I have been asked to work on a project that uses green screen. The group has only reserved a few 1K Tungsten lights and a few 650w Tungsten lights.

These are the only lights i will be able to use to light a small green screen. Are there any ways that anyone would suggest for me to properly light both the subject and the screen? I do that i will have to diffuse these lights alot in order to not have shadows on the screen and since i will not be able to use kinoFlos.

Are there any specific gels or filters that i will need to use in order to get the best result when i am compositing these shots?

Any help would be awesome!

Thanks in advance.
