1. A computer implemented system for Chroma key compositing and automated lighting adjustment, comprising:
a background structure, the background structure comprising:
a background area;
a subject region disposed in front of the background area;
a plurality of light sources configured to illuminate the background area and a subject within the subject region; and
a processor configured to control the plurality of light sources and configured to identify each light source of the plurality of light sources with a location data point in reference to locations of illumination by each respective light source on the background area, wherein the processor is configured to dim or brighten one or more of the plurality of light sources to achieve a uniform lighting of the background area using the locations of illumination by each respective light source.
