SCENE 01 / GREEN SCREEN
Green Screen Services
Professional chroma key filming for VFX and compositing across Colombia.
Green screen filming uses chroma key backdrops to isolate subjects for compositing against virtual backgrounds, environments, or visual effects in post-production. This technique is fundamental to modern filmmaking, and Colombia's 35% CINA tax credit combined with RCN's soundstage—the largest in Latin America—has made it a serious chroma key destination for Netflix and international productions.
We coordinate green screen setups at TIS Studios (75% Paramount-owned, with multiple stages and standing sets), RCN Studios (Latin America's largest soundstage), and Caracol Studios (which produced Eva Lasting for Netflix). Bogotá's largest stage reaches 16,000 sq ft. Our team sources cyclorama stages, portable backdrops, and the specialized lighting required for clean chroma key extraction, with direct handoff to LAMUVI Films, Colour Studio, WhereNext, and Enjoy Digital for compositing and finishing.

Toma Uno Bogotá, Dynamo and Caracol greenscreen stages with Limonero VFX finishing
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Greenscreen skill is the mature corner of Colombia's specialty-filming stack and clusters around four reference complexes: Toma Uno Bogotá — which carried Encanto's Latin-distribution finishing credit and now anchors most global chroma key work routed through the city — plus Dynamo Studios in Bogotá, the RCN and Caracol broadcast studios that run telenovela greenscreen pipelines into Caracol Internacional and Netflix Latin America, and Estudio Cuatro in Medellín for Antioquia-based shoots. The Bogotá lighting rental floor through Cinetech and 5.
1 Cine supplies the Skypanel S360 / S60 / S30, Vortex8, Astera Titan and Aputure Nova P600C kit needed for even spill-controlled key walls, with bilingual EN/ES gaffers skilled in CCNL telenovela turnarounds and Netflix Latin America delivery specs handling on-set ratios and edge cleanup. Camera departments out of Cinetech Bogotá and 5.1 Cine pair the wall with ARRI Alexa Mini LF, Sony Venice 2 and RED V-Raptor bodies tracked with Mo-Sys StarTracker or witness-camera marker arrays so the plate hand-off is clean.
Post-prod runs through Limonero Films, Colour Studio (Bogotá / Montevideo), WhereNext and Enjoy Digital, where keyers work in Nuke and Fusion with After Effects support for broadcast deliverables, masters land on ProRes 4444 XQ for theatrical and Netflix Latin America paths, and Resolve-based grading is layered in after the composite is locked. Our coordinators manage the Soprintendenza-equivalent paperwork through Proimágenes Colombia.
The Comisión Fílmica Colombiana, run Aerocivil sign-off where the brief includes aerial plate work integrated with chroma key, and route qualifying spend through the CINA 40% cash refund or the FFC 35% tax credit alongside DIAN ATA carnet records when global VFX supervisors travel with their own keyer laptops and reference monitors. Bilingual EN/ES VFX producers sit between the LA / London supervisor. The Bogotá keyer roster so notes don't get lost across the handoff between principal photography and Limonero's finishing bay.
FAQ
Chroma Key Expertise
Do you provide green screen studios?
Yes, we partner with TIS Studios (Paramount's 75%-owned Colombian hub), RCN Studios (Latin America's largest soundstage), and Caracol Studios—from interview setups to large cyclorama stages. Bogotá's largest stage reaches 16,000 sq ft.
Can you set up green screens on location?
Yes, we provide portable green screen solutions including pop-up backgrounds, fabric screens, and mobile lighting packages. We can create chroma key setups in almost any Colombian location with proper space and power.
What about blue screen vs green screen?
We work with both green and blue screens depending on your requirements. 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?
Clean keys require even lighting on the background, proper separation from talent, spill control, and attention to edge quality. Our teams understand these requirements and set up specifically for successful compositing at Colombian VFX facilities.
Do you coordinate with VFX supervisors?
Yes, we work closely with your VFX team—in-house or at Colombian facilities like LAMUVI Films, Colour Studio, WhereNext, or Enjoy Digital—to ensure 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 depending on camera selection. We ensure footage meets the resolution and codec requirements of your post-production pipeline, with cloud-based workflows now emerging in Bogotá and Medellín.
