Back To Basics - Green Screen Test

So today was really just about, remembering how it's all done. 
And hell I had no memory of anything from last year so I'm glad I've actually done that.
I only ever set up a green screen with a whole group of people, that was during an induction last year and I didn't need it anytime afterwards, so it's probably good that I've done that now.
With a help of my friend we put up a green screen and did a little shoot of her just so I can later on bring it into After effects and play around, again just to remember how to do it all.
Overall it took us around an hour and a half to set up the greenscreen, lights, and the camera, that statistic will come in useful further down the line when it'll come to planning the shoot for my practical response. That time included the setbacks we come across during this task so in the end it'd be a lot less than that.
During setting up we had the pleasure of getting all of the lights that were broken.
So that taught me to always check those before yo get down anywhere, we were lucky we were setting this up with Matt who could just pop to the next room and get us another set of lights but if we were on location etc etc that could have been a disaster D:
Apart from that everything went smoothly and it's not as bad as I thought it'll be.
