Green Screen Project

The Green Screen Project will encompass everything we have worked on in class thus far. The students will be using Google Sketchup to create a 3D environment to do a fake news segment in. They will then film the interview portion in front of green screen and use the chromakey feature to place themselves in the scene. They will also be responsible for creating at least two sound effects inside of Audacity and played as sound effects during the scene.


 This project is worth 25 points.

 They will be graded as follows:

 Pre-Planning Storyboard - 5 points
 Green Screen Clip - 5 points
 Green Screen Audacity Sound Engineering - 5 points
Sketchup Studio Design - 5 points
Quality Mark Up - 5 points.

 Total Points 25

Syncing Shots

Now that the students have a better understanding of lighting, they understand how to use their Chroma Key for Green Screening, and have had practice with two projects it is time to start thinking how to lace shots together.  Today the students will be learning how to sync multiple shots together into one.
