Can blue film be used with a green screen?

KODAK:FAQ:Dental Film Processing
No. When dental x-ray film is exposed, radiation from the x-ray unit strikes an intensifying screen. The intensifying screen converts x-ray radiation to visible light, which images the film. Dental x-ray film is sensitized to visible light, but only to light in a specific part of the color spectrum. Some films are sensitized to light in the blue part of the spectrum and others to light in the green part of the spectrum.

Why use Kino Flos to light a blue or green screen?

Kino Flo FAQ
For the best results the screen needs to be lit evenly and with the best possible color saturation. Evenness is easily achieved using Kino Flos because of the soft quality of the light and the wide beam spread. The best saturation of color is achieved by using blue-spike lamps on blue screens and green-spike lamps on green screens. It’s not as much about how much light is used to light a screen, but rather what produces the best saturation of reflected blue or green light.

Why is the water at the Falls blue/green in colour?

Niagara Falls - Frequently Asked Questions
The water is naturally blue/green in color. That color changes daily with the weather and the amount of sediment in the water. The water color is caused by two sources: sunlight refraction and diatoms in the water (microscopic plants such as algae and plankton in the water). After storms in the area or even Lake Erie, the water becomes murky brown. This is caused by the bottom sediment being stirred up and being carried in the water.

How resistant is the blue screen to scratching?

Dark Reader - FAQ
The blue screen is made of plastic and will scratch more easily than a UV screen. However, this does not appear to be an important factor in performance of the Dark Reader - we have had a Dark Reader in use for several years in a cloning lab and it has been used (and abused) on a daily basis. Though the blue surface is somewhat scratched when viewed under normal lab lighting, in operation all but the most serious scratches disappear.

Stephen: We don't promote consuming anything that has been denatured -- even in the slightest bit. Pills and powders are not natural, of course. If you want to eat algae, go to a lake and eat raw algae as other natural creatures do. All the information and pseudo-science fed to the masses about the supposed "benefits" of these denatured supplements is erroneous, hypothetical, and inspired by greed.

What is 'green film'? Why isn't it green?

rec.arts.movies.tech FAQ
Green film' is simply a term used for film which is fresh from the lab, and is still somewhat moist from the processing chemicals and lubricants used at the lab. It requires slightly more attention upon projection, as the moisture and lubrication can prevent this film from running steadily through the projector. This is why some perfectly good prints seem to have lousy registration when they have just been returned from the lab.
