Blue Screen Question

[Greg Crawford]

Best guess could my older (1950s) wind up 16 mm camera hold registration for 3 to 5 seconds on the following :

Godzilla type scene - City street with people ruing down the sidewalk. In the street a car is being crushed by a giant foot. Blue screen Giant foot coming down on a photograph of a crushed car. (play the video backwards, foot lifting off crushed vehicle.

Marry that piece of business to the following:

Blue screen - of people running in front of the city street, crushed car and monster foot. I know, I know some of you are thinking why don't you do it in Super 8 or Video.

Any ideas?

I say go for it!

Even if the registration jiggles you can chalk it up to the ground was shaking so badly because Godzilla was on the prowl! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

My mouth does not match the words exactly .....

..... Thank you!

I'm not sure why you think the footage would be so out of registration that a longer matte shot would not work. I've done backwound shots with super 8 , and the superimposed shots registered just fine with each other, no jiggle or wiggle. True, it wasn't blue screen, but the images stayed where they were supposed to in regards to each other. Is it the specific camera you are worried about? I was also wondering, what are you using for a blue screen? A commercially purchased one? What type of support system do you have for it? Is blue better/same/worse than green screen?
