There’s often a separate layer too for standing talent, if you decide to turn the desk off completely. They might also be reflected in the desktop or floor. Most of our virtual studio sets will have a number of separate ‘talent’ options – you may find an ‘Input A’ layer behind the desk, and also in front of the desk (in case you want to shoot your talent leaning on a green screen desktop). (When adding your own inputs, do remember to select the same source for your reflections!) Plenty of options for your talent
Some sets (for example Studio 1) will have extra layers already set up for real-time reflections in the desktop or floor. If you turn the example layer OFF, you will find a ‘Live Input’ behind it, which you can use for your own source instead. Our sets often feature a view outside the window – the example skyline will be a separate layer. Some will have coloured elements built-in to a single layer that is otherwise a neutral colour – like the desk in Studio 1 above – you can adjust the whole desk, and only the red bits will change, including the reflection in the floor and riser.
