production - What is the green background? ("green screen")

These are called "green screens" because of their green appearance. Green is used because it's one of the colors lesser worn on people. For example, they used to have blue screens, but if the person was wearing blue jeans then their legs would disappear instead of just the background.



As Jim Green mentioned there are other colored screens as well, probably to use in different situations depending on what people are wearing.
