Rejected footage

When initially filming my group wanted to use the green screen as it's conventional in pop videos and Jessie J videos for green screen to be used in small parts of the video.

For example in Jessie J's Price Tag she uses pastel coloured green screens,  and we drew inspiration from these when choosing green screen backgrounds.




We chose to use these two background for our green screen that were found from Google images.



Below, I've uploaded a video of the footage where my group has experimented editing with a green screen in Final Cut. 

                                       

From looking at the footage my group noticed that the green screen didn't necessarily look realistic and theres a faint outline around Beth, we didn't want to use this green screen footage because we felt it would bring down the quality of our final video. Also the green screen glitches and goes faint in certain parts of Beth's figure which also looks bad quality. Even after altering and editing the green screen using the tools in Final Cut (screen shots of tools below).....
The footage had issues and didn't blend in with the background. For example Beths hands looked webbed against the background. So,  all thought it is conventional for pop music videos to feature green screens, as a group we decided it wasn't worth the risk of including bad quality footage that could bring down the equality of the overall video. Instead of using green screen we have decided to use a white screen in our video to replicate a  studio space as well as including a purple lit section for the bridge.
