Green Screen Program
-- Moved to Programs, Apps and Websites --
Green as a color has the largest spectrum for cameras/monitors, so is the generally chosen color for a green screen.
The way you describe you wanting to use a green background, is basically exactly how a 'proper green screen' works in any other scenario.
By recording yourself in front of a green surface, any proper video editing program will be able to cut out the green and you can put another video/image/etc. behind yourself.
My go to for video editing is Davinci Resolve (which there is a free and paid version, the free version works fine for this purpose).
There are also ways to do what you mentioned in OBS, a (free) recording software.
'green screening' is also generally known as 'chroma key'. Some software use one or the other term, but for tutorials you'll find them under either term.
P.S. I should let you know that lighting is incredibly important when it comes to green screens. The green needs to be evenly lit, but you don't want it to cast on yourself either.. etc.
I am certainly not an expert on this, but just know that if you don't get the desired effect, it might have to do with the lighting involved, how the green screen reflect light, etc.
