Hello
Who knows how close to chroma key green does the shade of a green screen have to be for the video effect to work? OBS studio is my software.
I'm interested in having a roller blind as a green screen to conceal the tandem, box of electronic 'junk' perched on its carrier and the general detritus that's behind my chair at the radio shack end of my workshop. Roller blinds come in a shade called jade that's fairly close.

This would be about half the price of the chroma key roller blinds. Otherwise I'll buy a white or lime green blind and paint it. I'm not draping a fabric screen.

All the best

You can set any shade but the idea is for it to be as unique as possible. Lighting is very important too. I bought a quite cheap 3x20 green cotton material designed for photographers. It's a little more expensive than the cheapest but worth the extra. Its described as PhotoSEL BK11CG ChromaKey Green Screen Backdrop 2m x 3m. Mine was £18 but they are £26 on Ebay and Amazon at the moment.
