Setup the camera, computer and printing for optimal workflow
A few bottle necks exist when trying to create a lot of greenscreen photos quickly. By setting up the camera and printer in the most efficient way, you can decrease the amount of time from photo capture to print.
Bottlenecks to avoid:
- Getting images from camera to computer
The slowest method is to manually remove the SD card and copy over the images. Either tether the camera (a function on most dSLR cameras that allows connecting the camera to a computer directly with a USB cable), or use a wifi SD card to transfer the images from the camera to the computer quickly
- File management
Set a folder structure that works best for the work flow. For each photo, you'll have the incoming portrait, a background image selected from a menu of choices, and the standard overlay. Create a folder for the untouched portraits, the digital assets (backgrounds and overlays, and the resulting final files.
- Printing
Use the Epson Selphy to print the coresponding 4x6 photos. The Epson Selphy is quick and results in immediately usable prints.
Setting Overlays
Load any overlays here. In the past, we've used a frame overlay.
Print
Select the 4x6 300 Vertical (portrait) or 4x6 300 Horizontal (landscape) depending on the orientation of the photo.
