We all know what is Hollywood and its dominancy in producing blockbuster movies over the last century. Hollywood is a name of best movies producing phenomena. But have you ever wonder how do they do it? Is it video editing software that do all the work or they put their lives on the line to shoot any action clip? If they use software for editing the whole video why is there a need of using original locations for shooting?
This entire bunch of questions will be answered in this article.
In different action movies there are different stuntmen that perform action instead of the hero himself do any action. But there are few scenes of a movie in which an actor has to perform himself. So in order to shoot those scenes the director uses green screen and the software effect that works for it is chroma key effect.
For an idea that how green screen and chroma key effect works you can go on YouTube and see the making of the Matrix. In most of the action scene of that movie chroma key effect is used.
Using real locations for a film is an ideal scenario but with a tight budget it is not easy to make whole movie using real locations. So the director decides to take a background picture for that scene. But the software’s they use are highly expensive. But I will tell you how you can edit your movies and become a popular filmmaker or director.
The free software that can do the job for you is wax2.0 it is free of cost and offers many effects like chroma key effect etc. Another thing is that you can use a webcam for making a movie.

Next step is shooting the video and editing the green screen with your favorite background. Upload your video to different websites and you can become famous director or at least you will enjoy the work you done in spending very few dimes.
