Removing URL cruft from a YT link


* Towards the end the Wrestling/{{AWA}} was reduced to taping shows in a studio (in reality an old supermarket) in front of no fans because they couldn't even give away tickets. How did they disguise this? With [[https://youtu.be/q7sBjqz19cU?si=DYbbuUwjvGM_kUMC&t=113 really cheesy green screen entrances]]!

More commonly known as ''green screen'', the process by which a subject filmed on a camera can be seamlessly inserted into a scene generated by other means. It relies on filming the subject in front of a solid-color background -- usually green or blue -- and processing the film in a way that removes that particular color and leaving a clean plate that can be filled with the visual effect. The technique is usually used to composite the subject into a computer generated environment, but other live action footage, matte paintings, traditional animation, or some combination of all can be used also.

* This process was used by uploaders on Website/YouTube to create the "Don't let your kids watch it" meme involving Robbie Rotten of ''Series/LazyTown''. Following the release of a promo in which Robbie pulls a curtain down over Sportacus and Stephanie promoting the show and declares "Don't let your kids watch it," a green-screen version of Robbie pulling down the curtain and declaring this was released. Uploaders then made use of this to place Robbie in front of other clips considered amusing targets, such as from ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'', ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' or other viral videos, followed by him pulling down the curtain and advising to not let your kids watch it.

* ''Series/TheEricAndreShow'' parodies this in the "Bird Up!" sketches, where Eric wears a green body suit that is supposed to make him inconspicuous in post-production. The effect is not applied most of the time, and when it is, a wholly unrelated landscape shows through the suit.

* Creator/RayHarryhausen used the sodium vapor process on a number of his films. For instance, it's used to achieve some of the scale effects in ''The Three Worlds of Gulliver''. More subtly, in ''Film/JasonAndTheArgonauts'', in the scene where Jason is talking to Medea at the stern of the ''Argo'', you have to look closely to realize that they were filmed in the studio with location footage of the rest of the ship matted in behind them.

* In the video for Snow Patrol's song Called Out In The Dark, a disgruntled band member wears a green shirt at one point, and, to mess up the [[ShowWithinaShow video clip being filmed]], replaces an actress who is to jump in front of the camera. {{Hilarity ensues}}, until the producer sees. Then, {{surprisingly realistic outcome}} occurs.
