This week we had the opportunity to learn the process of creating and editing using green screen in iMovie. First of all, it was a fun project, which is especially great at the end of the semester! It was also fun to be able to watch each other making the videos. Fun and embarrassing! Originally, I had the intention to dance with a instructor in a samba tutorial, but, when I realized all the class would be watching me doing that, I changed my mind. At the end, I happily accepted Eileen's invitation to make a video with her, after all, her elf video would be so much nicer than my dance video!
The editing part of the project was actually easier than I thought it would be, so it wouldn't be that difficult to have students create their own green screen, but it probably would be hard to contain their excitement. There are so many ways to incorporate this kind of project in a classroom: students can narrate essays, present videos or lecture about a specific subject, create report, or an entire educative TV news, and so on. Thus, it can potentially be informative, significant, instructive, and, mostly, engaging.
I hope you guys like our elf video!
This is great and the timing was priceless, watching how it was made one would have never dreamed this would be the turn out. Great Job!!
ReplyDeleteHahaha - i've watched our video a bunch of times! Glad we could do it together & I totally agree that the editing and what not was easier than i originally thought it would be. Having a buddy always makes it easier & more fun!
ReplyDeleteHaha what creativity! Its clear what you have on your mind this time of year, Graci. I love that you had two parts of the clip where you green screened in characters. From what I have seen so far in other people's work, this is the first dual-input that was done.
