Green Screen Services
Professional chroma key filming for VFX and compositing across Ireland.
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 Wicklow—Ireland's 'Hollywood' with Vikings, The Tudors, and Braveheart in its credits—anchors an industry supported by Section 481's 32% tax credit and a skilled English-speaking crew base.
We coordinate green screen setups at Ardmore Studios in Wicklow (Ireland's oldest film studio, founded 1958, with 5 stages), Ashford Studios (70,000 sq ft), Troy Studios in Limerick (350,000 sq ft facility, one of Europe's largest), and Titanic Studios Belfast. Our team sources cyclorama stages, portable backdrops, and the specialized lighting required for clean chroma key extraction, with direct handoff to Windmill Lane Recording, Screen Scene, Egg Post, and The Sound Yard for VFX, Dolby Atmos mixing, and audio post.

Chroma Key Expertise
Do you provide green screen studios?
Yes, we partner with Ardmore Studios in Wicklow (5 stages, Ireland's oldest studio founded 1958), Ashford Studios (70,000 sq ft), Troy Studios in Limerick (350,000 sq ft), and Titanic Studios Belfast—from interview setups to cyclorama stages for full-body and action work.
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 Irish 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 Irish teams bring extensive international production experience to every chroma key setup.
Do you coordinate with VFX supervisors?
Yes, we work closely with your VFX team—in-house or at Irish facilities like Screen Scene, Windmill Lane, Egg Post, or The Sound Yard—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 Section 481 available for qualifying Irish co-productions.
