Green screen - JJ

Flip camera.

Kodak records in mac format - get a Kodak!

You need a tripod.

Green screen (you can use a green sheet or paint a box green!)

She shared her students videos with us - using gloster.

Some of her issues - students not interested in speaking, students not interested in being in front of camera.

So...she thought of virtual field trip/post cards to their homelands. They took photos around the school.

When you are green screening - start with the green screen, students comes in and speaks and then student leaves and green stays. Need this for imovie. You need lighting all around the student - even from the back so you don't have any shadows. (no lighting in front of them)

Use imovie it is so easy. Important your video (must be .mov file) and drag the image. Pref needs to have advanced tools clicked - enable green screen.

Easier with mac than pc.

She used glogster to present her students videos to us - make sure you are using the education version of this software.

You need microphones.

Must be chroma green.
