Green Screen set up

[VVstreamer]

Im having some issues with my green screen. I watched the tutorial by Voorny on YT and he makes a scene just for his camera source and sets his green screen up in there, then adds that to his other scenes. So my question is, is this the way i should be doing it and what downfalls (if any) are there? I have alot of scenes and i am thinking of going this route and it would take me some time to get this done. Hate to do it and run into issues later down the road. TIA!!

This is honestly the easiest way to set things up and have maximum flexibility.

You create the dedicated scene so that you can still use your raw camera feed if needed. Any time you apply filters, it will apply across all scenes that use that source, so applying the filters to the scene instead will allow the option of using either the unfiltered camera capture, or the filtered (chroma-keyed) scene source.

All you have to do is create the scene, add your camera, then apply the chroma key filter to the scene itself. Then for each scene where you would normally have your camera, just add the scene source instead. The filters are tied to the dedicated scene, so you don't have to set up the filter again... which also means any tweaks you need to do just need to be done on that dedicated scene's filters, and it will apply across all scenes that it's included in.

If you know for a fact that you don't need your raw camera feed for anything, you can completely skip the dedicated scene and just apply the chroma key filter to the camera source directly. This will do the same thing -- the filter will be applied to the camera regardless of which scene it's in, since filters are tied to the source itself.
