Ok, I need to make a sky background should I use blue posterboard or something else?
That depends if you want a blue sky.
Depends on the sky you're going for. Blue card, blue paper, even painted blue wood can do a decent job on set.
If you have Chroma Cloth Or something like that Do it and use the free stock footage pack

I'm going to make a wild suggestion. Maybe you could... try the poster-board, and see how it looks? I don't mean to be overly critical, but I can't help but feel like this is something that ultimately comes down to you. Filming is all about coming up with solutions. Try different things- there isn't any one way to make a sky backdrop, and different methods yield different results. Be creative, see what you have on hand, and put it in front of the camera. The worst possible outcome is a sky you aren't pleased with, after which you just try other things until something good comes out of it.
