Production/ Editing (Evaluation)


Green Screen Project

A green screen is a screen where almost every film uses to create their effects, using software similar to Adobe Premiere; they add the images they want use it their film after they have created they main film or they add the images to the film during the main production stage.
Things like audio is added at a different stage during the production.
As part of my levle two media course I was asked to make a short green screen project, with three different audio tracks on the same film/ video peice.
The fillm could be pretty much whatever we wanted (within reason) and as long as it had relevance to the topic and could be achived using a Green Screen.

The screenshot is of a blank project on Premiere; with the media I'm using to create my project in the media libary on the left hand side of the screen.


This screenshot is of my project, unrendered with a few peices of cut media in the timeline...
Making sure that all the pictures I want to use are underneath the main greenscreen video







In the screenshot below, I am rendering my video so that I can have a few video previews.

In the screenshot below, I am again rendering my video so that I can have a few video previews, for future reference.

Using the Green Screen (Proposal)

Using a Green Screen
What is a green screen
A green screen is a screen that you can use to project a image (either moving or still) or other special effects like the magic from Harry Potter's wand or an explosion from a building.
All of these effects can be created using a green screen.

How does it work
In order to create the kind of effects you want, you need to use a specific type of software (I don't know what type of software you need).
You find whatever you want to on a computer (like a background) and then, using software, you can move and position the image so that it's in the right place, obviously you'd have different scenes for different genres of film.

3 films that use this effect
Star Wars
Gravity
Harry Potter

1 minute scene
An astronaut exits a spaceship to do the 1st walk on mars.
Gets chased by a alien back to the space ship and the astronaut just manages to get away before the alien catches up.
