Beyonce - Countdown

• Chroma key happens a lot in the Music video Countdown by Beyonce. An example of Chroma in the video would be when Beyonce is on the screen numerous times, as she is counting down and showing it with her fingers.

• In the video they also use Green screen in this scene, They have used a bright coloured background with bright coloured cloths on Beyonce which contrast with the background this makes the video look bright and happy, they have used green screen to present Beyonce 4 times in this shot.

• They have used green screen in this shot, by adding a layer on top of the first green screen and changed the background colour and then adding Beyonce on top of it but with the same colour cloths on as the background. They use many shots like this with various colours, this creates an effect on the audience that brightens up the video and has a happy atmosphere.

They have used green screen in this shot to shoot 4 scenes at once, with a contrast of bright colours and

different images.

• In this shot they have used green scene, you can tell as there are many beyonces on the scene as once doing different movements, as well as that, they have different coloured blocks moving about in the back ground.

• They have used green screen here by again layer the shots on the screen with Beyonce in all the shots but doing different things. They have also contrasted the colours by having bright colours and with the back ground the same colour as the top on Beyonce.
