My advice is forget the steadicam and jib if you are wanting to do
blue screen work.
They add motion to the key that then has to be canceled-out in
software and that's
a real hassle. Where you want to add motion to key shots you typically
need a motion-controlled
camera jib, that makes moves repeatable with exactitude, which as a
beginner you cannot likely afford or know how to use.
Trust me; keying a simple locked-down tripod shot is challenging
enough to do well.
Get yourself a basic rig: good tripod with fluid head, a competent
light kit, keying software and the
camera of your choice alone will take you to your ten grand or
beyond.
If you decide to play with steadicams or jibs, rent them just for the
time you need them.
