message: "His technique exploits the fact that most objects in real-world scenes have a colour whose blue colour component is similar in intensity to their green colour component."
Why is it important that the blue and green color components are similar? I would think that if ones uses a blue screen the intensity of the green color component wouldn't matter... --BobaFett 19:36, 9 July 2005 (UTC)

message: I don't think this article should be merged with Chroma key because Chroma key is about television and Bluescreen is about film. They should be separate but have references to each other. --WikiCats 10:55, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Isn't it a little weird that on the Bluescreen page Wikipedia shows a image of a incorrect setup, but not a single setup that is correct? I think we ought to show a correct example, but I have not bluescreen nor any projectors or high-power lamps. --80.63.213.182 21:01, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

message: someone mentioned about grey mattes in the other colour section. the grey matte is actually Truematte. developed by the BBC it is very easy to use, provides exelent results and has no spill allowing for full artistic controll over lighting! the stuff is ace! it needs its own paragraph. if someone with some literacy skills would write something about it it would be nice. there is lots of information here http://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/projects/virtual/truematte/index.shtml —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.20.156.45 (talk) 01:50, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

message: In the Abbott and Costello film from 1951 where they meet the Invisible Man, was the special effect for transparency arrived at through black screening?  Or was it done in some other way, as with a series of mattes?
As for superimposing one dimension over another, didn't black screening - that is, shooting in front of a wall that is painted completely black - predate the chroma keying of the 1970s? 198.177.27.26 07:43, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Isn't the more common name for it the Greenscreen? I have never in my life heard it called the bluescreen. If there are conflicts with other pages anyway, why don't we just move it back to Green. It would make more sense, because this is the term that most people are familiar with. And I'm sure it can be called either one acceptably. So regardless of what we have pictures for or being "politically correct," I think we should go with the term everyone knows, not the one that confuses the heck out of people! └Jared┘┌t┐  03:24, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Bluescreen was the common name for it first, I'd say.  Throughout the 80s and early 90s I doubt anyone would know what you meant if you said "greenscreen". I suspect you are young? :) 71.63.105.172 07:06, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
