Having a bit of green screen difficulties. White is NOT cool for example .- seems to let most things pass through unkeyed . On the opposite side of green on a color wheel is purple - would that work best?

Wonder if my talent has a purple shirt/coat ....

So what's the most recommeneded green color key clothing?

TIA!

If you're having problems with white on the talent I think you maybe need to look at how you're lighting the screen and the talent.
The screen needs to be around half the level of talent and evenly lit with no spill of the green onto the talent. Some backlighting of the talent to get good separation can help also.
If or when you've got all that in place look for a tutorial on how to use the CK tool.

Does your camera have a zebra function?
Light might be too hot on the subject or possibly on the
background. Adjust the high threshold lower.
