First Green Screen Test (with node setup)

Hello, all. I finally set up a long-awaited green screen in my basement and tested it out promptly. I found that the chroma key node in Blender is useless (not the coder’s fault of course; it’s just that automated mattes just don’t work), so I did it the “hard” way.

The “Green Screen Nightmare” Blender tutorial for getting a professional matte, directly according to my luck, was not to be found online, so I did the whole node setup from scratch. Having never looked at or followed a tutorial for this before (or even trying green screen before, for that matter), I was really satisfied with the result. There are bunch of errors related to lighting that I didn’t bother to fix, since it was just a test. However, the keying itself is great except for the faint glow.
