SCENE 01 / GREEN SCREEN

Green Screen Services

Professional chroma key filming for VFX and compositing across Brazil.

Scroll

Here is how this works in practice. Green screen filming uses chroma key backdrops to isolate subjects for compositing against virtual backgrounds, environments, or visual effects in post-prod. This technique is fundamental to modern filmmaking. Brazil—with Rio's Globo ecosystem and São Paulo's Quanta/BigBox/O2 hubs—has one of Latin America's most developed chroma key and VFX infrastructures.

Here is the short of it. We set up green screen setups at Estúdios Globo in Rio (one of the world's largest TV production centers with 13 stages), Estúdios Quanta in São Paulo (2,400 sq m), BigBox Estúdios (1,200+ sq m), and Locall de Cinema e Televisão. Our team sources cyclorama stages, portable backdrops, and specialized chroma key lighting, with direct handoff to O2 Filmes, Casablanca/Teleimage, and Cinecolor Brasil for compositing, DI, and VFX finishing. Up to 30% cash rebates ready in Rio.

Chroma-key stages at Globo Estúdios PROJAC Rio, O2 Filmes São Paulo, Casablanca São Paulo, and Estúdios Mega Rio with full Rosco Chroma Key Green / Blue paint, cyc-wall, and SkyPanel-lit setups

Here is how this works in practice. Brazilian green-screen capacity scaled hard alongside the SVOD content boom (Netflix, Globoplay, Disney+, HBO Max, Prime Video originals 2018–2025). Our primary stages are Globo Estúdios PROJAC Rio (many cyc-wall stages across the 1.5 km² tricky, the largest TV shoot sites in Latin America since 1965, telenovela engine backbone), O2 Filmes São Paulo (Fernando Meirelles's firm), Casablanca Studios São Paulo, Estúdios Mega Rio, Cinedia Rio (Brazil's oldest active studio, since 1930), and Gullane Filmes São Paulo.

Here is how the picture comes together. On the ground, Cyc-wall painting is Rosco Chroma Key Green / Chroma Key Blue (CKG / CKB), corner-coves for clean key edges, and pre-lit with ARRI SkyPanel S360 / S60 + Aputure Nova P600c soft-RGBW panels at 200–250 fc cyc with 0.5–1 stop falloff variance. Camera bodies are ARRI Alexa 35 / Mini LF, Sony Venice 2 Rialto, RED V-Raptor with primes from ARRI Master Prime / Signature Prime, Zeiss Supreme Prime, and Cooke S7/i.

Here is the short of it. The Brazilian deliverable spec runs heavy on Globoplay first-series chroma compositing (telenovela exterior-plate VFX, dream-sequence work, period-piece architectural extension), commercial work for Itaú, Bradesco, Vivo, Magazine Luiza, Natura, and Skol, music-video chroma for sertanejo + funk carioca + MPB artists, and the streaming-feature compositing for Walter Salles, Fernando Meirelles, José Padilha, Kleber Mendonça Filho, and Karim Aïnouz pipelines. Finishing flows through Quanta Post São Paulo (Brazil's dominant VFX + DI house) plus O2 Pos and Conspiração Filmes Rio with Nuke 15.x + Mocha Pro 2024 + Silhouette FX + Flame on Wacom Cintiq Pro 32 review stations. Cross-border LA partnership runs through ILM and Pixomondo when feature-grade compositing exceeds local capacity. ANCINE / Lei do Audiovisual Article 1A/1B/1B-bis / Lei Rouanet / FSA funding structures budgeted. CLT / FGTS 8% / 13º salário across freelance.

FAQ

Chroma Key Expertise

Do you provide green screen studios?

Here is the breakdown. Yes, we partner with Estúdios Globo (13 recording studios in Rio), Estúdios Quanta (2,400 sq m in São Paulo), BigBox Estúdios (1,200+ sq m), and Locall de Cinema e Televisão—from interview setups to large cyclorama stages suitable for full-body shots and action sequences.

Can you set up green screens on location?

Yes, we give portable green screen solutions including pop-up backgrounds, fabric screens, and mobile lighting packages. We can create chroma key setups in almost any Brazilian location with proper space and power.

What about blue screen vs green screen?

We work with both green and blue screens based on your needs. Blue screen is often preferred for blonde hair or scenes with green elements. We advise based on your specific compositing needs and VFX pipeline.

How do you ensure clean keys?

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Clean keys need even lighting on the background, proper separation from talent, spill control, and attention to edge quality. Our teams know these needs and set up specifically for successful compositing at Brazilian VFX houses.

Do you coordinate with VFX supervisors?

Yes, we work closely with your VFX team—in-house or at Brazilian facilities like O2 Filmes, Casablanca/Teleimage, or Estúdios Quanta—to make sure we capture tracking markers, reference photography, HDRIs, and clean plates.

What resolution and formats do you support?

We shoot green screen in formats up to 8K based on camera selection. We make sure footage meets the resolution and codec needs of your post-prod pipeline.

Productions in Brazil that need this often pair it with Virtual Reality Filming, Virtual Production, and AR Production for full coverage. Most projects also draw on Sound Recordist Teams and Sound & Audio.
