Hello,

I have a question about the Chroma Key set-up.
I want to build a set that looks like a picture window in an office building . Easy right?... My question is can I do it with a 90* corner in it? If you can imagine it would look like a big glass corner in a high rise building. Will this work? Or will the image distort or look obviously fake when it makes the bend?

I hope I explained it right.

Thanks in advance.

I dont think it will work. In order for a chroma key to work, you need bright even lighting across the fabric/backdrop. You will have a hard time lighting a background in a corner..it will have shadows and tough to light..

You could achieve this effect with a flat chroma screen and the picture only need be bent like that
