The Digital Juice Chroma Pop is our first foray into bringing you non-software products that continue our goal of helping you get your video projects done better, faster, and cheaper. The Chroma Pop is a highly portable, blue|green reversible pop-up screen that is designed to give you perfect keys no matter where you are.

 

It's spring steel frame lets this 7ft by 5ft screen instantly collapse into a bag 1/3rd its size that can easily fit into any back seat, closet, or trunk. When you need it, it instantly pops open to reveal its full size. The blue and green fabric have been specially formulated to give you the best key possible when used with standard editing and plug-in keying software.

 
So now, whether you are at home, in the studio or on the road, you can have a high-quality, portable, reversible green or blue screen instantly available to you.

 
 

Folds in Seconds

1.
Holding the top right corner with your right hand, grab the bottom left corner with your left hand and pull the two corners together(folding the frame in half) and creating an upside down U shape with the frame.

2.
Push down and in on the middle top section of the frame farthest from your body so that it goes to the ground to form two circles with that half.

3.
Fold one circle towards your leg, then the other. You may adjust the size of the circles to achieve a better fit during this process.

4.
Place folded up screen in clear bag.

NoteFold in a clean and dry area.

 

2-in-1 Green and Blue screen
Green screen or blue screen? It doesn't matter which one you need because the double-sided Chroma Pop offers both options in one portable pop-up screen.

Compact and portable

Having a dual sided 7' X 5' chromakey screen is nice, but how to store and transport it? The Chroma Pop answers that question with a steel band frame that allows the unit to be collapsed into a much smaller size. Just use a small amount of force in the right place and the large screen is reduced to the size of a standard bicycle tire -- only it's much lighter and, thanks to a handy carrying case, easy to transport from point A to point B.

High quality material

The Chroma Key background fabric is constructed of a high grade green and blue color polyester fabric fused together using 32 density foam. The unit's collapsible frame is made from hardened tempered spring steel making it strong, but flexible.

7ftX5ft

Not too big to get in the way, but big enough to do full body shots with two adults.

Plastic carry bag
If you don't opt for the Deluxe Carry Bag we include a free clear plastic zipper carry case that gets the job done and keeps your screen safe.

Easy to use
All it takes is the right twist of the wrist with a little pressure applied and the Chroma Pop screen responds, twisting into two halves and then collapsing into a 30 inch diameter circle. Expanding the Chroma Pop screen is even easier. Just give it a nudge in the right direction and the Chroma Pop screen does the rest -- practically expanding all by itself. Then it's a simple matter of using the Chroma Pop's many tabs or loops to secure the unit into place on a stand or against a wall, giving you a clean background for your subject matter.

 FREQUENTLY ASKED
 QUESTIONS (FAQ)

 

Q: How do you properly light a Chroma Pop for shooting good keys?

A: For ideal keys, you will need to light the Chroma Pop separately with balanced light from both sides set at 45 degrees to 30 degrees. With video, use an external monitor to check for hotspots. Make sure your subject is at least 8 to 10 feet in front of the screen and separately lit. You want as much distance as possible between the background and the subject to avoid shadows and color spill.

A softbox is nice to have for your subject's face for a softer look. You can also use a hair light to make the subject really pop off the screen. You want your keying software to have no problem figuring out what to key out. The "Digital Juice Reflector" kits are a great companion product. You can use them for extra fill lights and to help redirect light that shines on subjects with glasses or bald heads.

Q: Is wrinkling as much of an issue with the Chroma Pop as it is with other fabric green screens?

A: Because the Chroma Pop is a fold-up, portable cloth product, some wrinkling is bound to occur when you keep it in storage for any length of time. However, as mentioned above, lighting and separation of talent is by far the most crucial aspect of chroma keying. Any slight wrinkling that may form will usually not affect the process if lighting is correct. As a matter of fact, the Chroma Pop will likely still key better than many blue/green walls you've worked with.
