Joys of chroma keying

Today I was editing an amalgam of different stuff...
all of them very complex in the nature that they were voice-overs, flashbacks and just a lot of different effects...
The ol' chroma key or greenscreen method was employed in our movie many times, and it is a joy to do... because, if done well, you have endless limitations...
In this simple example, we have Mike Perez (DJ in Piedras Negras) plays a national reporter in the film and has to be in several parts of the Mexican Republic.
Here he is in Los Troncos, Quintana Roo.
Oh, and for all those "professionals" that criticize our wrinkled green screen: It works doesn't it! ;-D
