How do I use a greenscreen in my photobooth with Booth Junkie?

In short

Set up green or blue screen under Admin Panel → Options → Green Screen.

  • Choose Greenscreen or Bluescreen to match your backdrop.
  • Tune Sensitivity for each venue and lighting setup.
  • Background images must be imported first.

Set it up

  1. Open the Admin Panel and go to Options and then Green Screen.

    Admin Panel -> Options -> Green Screen, showing the Mode, Sensitivity, background list, and Preview controls
  2. Use the Mode dropdown to turn it on and choose your technique – Greenscreen or Bluescreen, matching whatever colour backdrop you’re using.

  3. Adjust Sensitivity to control how aggressively your backdrop colour is detected and replaced.

  4. Tick which background images you want available – these need to already be added via Admin Panel → Add Files → Import → Greenscreen first. Ticking more than one lets the booth cycle through them during an event.

  5. Turn on Preview to see a live composite using your actual camera feed and current settings, so you can judge your Sensitivity setting before an event rather than during one.

  6. Do not forget to save your new settings

Choosing a Sensitivity

Sensitivity Benefit Risk
Higher Catches dim or unevenly-lit patches of your backdrop more reliably. Eating into green or blue clothing or props.
Lower Protects clothing colours better. A visible fringe around your subject if your backdrop lighting is uneven.

Tip: Tune it at every venue

It’s worth tuning this per venue and lighting setup rather than leaving it on a fixed value.
