SCENE 01 / GREEN SCREEN
Green Screen Services
Professional chroma key filming for VFX and compositing across Portugal.
Green screen filming uses chroma key backdrops to isolate subjects for compositing against virtual backgrounds, environments, or visual effects in post-production. This technique is fundamental to modern filmmaking, and Portugal—with Tage Studios (Europe's first all-green studio, a €200M project under construction in Palmela) and a 30% tax rebate—is emerging as a serious European production destination.
We coordinate green screen setups at Tage Studios, MovieBox Studios in the Algarve (3 stages from 1,500 to 3,000m² plus water stages), Loudness Films in Lisbon, and Digital Azul. Our team sources cyclorama stages, portable backdrops, and the specialized lighting required for clean chroma key extraction, with direct handoff to Glimpse VFX, Loudness Films (Dolby Atmos + BaseLight), Ingreme (since 1993), Digital Azul, and Lobby Films for 8K editing, VFX, and grading. Up to 25-30% post-production rebate available.

FAQ
Chroma Key Expertise
Do you provide green screen studios?
Yes, we partner with Tage Studios (Europe's first all-green studio, €200M under construction in Palmela), MovieBox Studios in the Algarve (3 stages from 1,500 to 3,000m² plus water stages), Loudness Films in Lisbon, and Digital Azul.
Can you set up green screens on location?
Yes, we provide portable green screen solutions including pop-up backgrounds, fabric screens, and mobile lighting packages. We can create chroma key setups in almost any Portuguese location with proper space and power.
What about blue screen vs green screen?
We work with both green and blue screens depending on your requirements. Blue screen is often preferred for blonde hair or scenes with green elements. We advise based on your specific compositing needs and VFX pipeline.
How do you ensure clean keys?
Clean keys require even lighting on the background, proper separation from talent, spill control, and attention to edge quality. Our Portuguese teams understand these requirements and set up specifically for successful compositing at local VFX houses.
Do you coordinate with VFX supervisors?
Yes, we work closely with your VFX team—in-house or at Portuguese facilities like Glimpse VFX, Loudness Films, Ingreme, Digital Azul, or Lobby Films—to capture tracking markers, reference photography, HDRIs, and clean plates.
What resolution and formats do you support?
We shoot green screen in formats up to 8K depending on camera selection. We ensure footage meets the resolution and codec requirements of your post-production pipeline, with 8K editing suites and DaVinci 4K grading available.
