[Year 12 IPM] OT: Green Screening with computers

[RILEY, Bruce]

Michael,

We are about to do this at Kew High School. We will use either Wax (open
source) or we also have Sony Vegas Movie Studio. Our drama assistant
experienced with a few different colour backgrounds and she has decided
on a green colour which she matched with one of the settings from Wax.

Subject: [Year 12 IPM] OT: Green Screening with computers

 

Dear Colleagues

I have an Off Topic question that I hope someone can answer.

 

My Drama teacher would like to invest in some computer technology that
allows for green (or blue) screen editing i.e., filming actors in front
of a green screen and allowing the computer user to change the
background. You would have heard of it being used in films and for
weather reports.

 

However we have a disagreement as to the requirements of such a project
regarding software, computer specs etc. 

 

Does anyone know of a school that has successfully implemented such a
project, perhaps in their Drama or Media Studies department?

I would love to hear from them, with the possibility of a visit.
