In this lesson I was assigned with Eden and Emma again and we all talked about different ideas we could do. Emma didn't really up come with much she just really agreed with mine and Eden's different ideas and said they were both good. My idea for the green screen was to have someone running away from something like a giant beast or something. If you have ever played the game temple run, something like that, I would have imagined it to look like. The background would have been a dark tunnel/alley/a long path that leads into a cave. Or running out of a cave away from the beast. I would have planned the actor in front of the screen to pretend to be running, dodging and jumping over things. Eden's idea was something along the lines of pretending to be flying through the sky if I remembered right. We then all couldn't decide on one that would be good to do as we couldn't think of the little stuff we would need to consider like props. So Marissa gave us inspiration to have an actor standing in-front of the green screen clicking their fingers and every time they did they would switch location. We then planned which locations we would be using, what props we would be needing and then the non dietetic sounds/music we would be using with it.
We chose the locations to be a snowy kind of scene which I was assuming to be Alaska or something. For that scene we would be using a green screen effect of snow falling down which would be processed later on in editing. We would be using a Christmas song for the background. The props we decided we would need for this location would be a hat, gloves, scarf and a wintery coat and that Emma would be in charge of bringing that in. For the next location we chose a church as Emma is religious and she would have access to the prop we need which would be a bible which she would be in charge for. The background music for that location would be church bells ringing or some kind of hymn sang in church. We chose the next location to be a beach scene, with the background music to be a Hawaiian theme song with the use of the props being sunglasses which I would be in charge for. The last location we decided on was underwater in an ocean. Eden would be in charge of bringing in a snorkel and we would be using another green screen overlay with fishes swimming around. We all made a group decision that we would all bring our SD Cards just incase something went wrong.

Editing our green screen footage. 23/2/16
Today's lesson I sat down and edited our clips and finished editing it all together.
I imported all our clips onto adobe premier pro cc and worked on a skeleton edit which took me quite a while as I was trying to get the clips as accurate as possible. I then looked onto youtube and took some overlay animations and I downloaded a moving animation of swimming fish for our water green screen and downloaded an animation of snow falling for another one of our background changes.
I then edited all backgrounds onto our clips and I grasped onto editing with changing the background very quickly. I did this by putting the original video in the video 3 slot. I then inserted the image that I wanted to put as the background in video slot 2 so then the image overlapped. I then went onto the effects tap, clicked keying, then ultra key and dragged it onto the original video. I then went onto effect management and clicked on the pippet and then clicked onto the green background and then the whole green screen vanished and the image I had selected in slot 2 was the background. I had to play around with changing the sizes about and then it looked good. I repeated this several times throughout the whole thing.
For the animations the only thing I had to do was swap around the images of the background from video slot 2 to video to video slot 1 and then insert the animation in video slot 2 instead. I then had to use the ultra key on the background image and also the animation video for some reason I do not understand but I managed to make the effects I wanted and the clips ended up perfectly.
I haven't yet taken screenshots of the editing of the audio as I haven't yet been to college to do so but as soon as I get back to college I will screenshot them and upload them to this blog.

Green Screen Lesson Filming
In this lesson everyone was based in the green screen recording studio. We all recorded our clips for our green screen project. We all watched each other filming theirs and we all stayed put in the recording studio all day.When it came to filming our project. Our group had all made an input into the project with the props and things. My group for this is the same as it was for the last project, Me, Eden and Emma.
Emma made an effort by being the actor for the clips we filmed, she brought in a bible for one of scene's, she also then brought in gloves, hat, scarf and a winter coat for another scene we would be using.
Eden made effort by bringing in snorkel glasses for a scene in our clips and she also filmed our clips for us as she likes to be behind the camera and be able to record.
I made an input by bringing in sunglasses for one of our scenes and I was also helping out with getting the props organised before the next scene was needed.
After that we didn't really do much so that was all for this lesson.
Here are some images from today's lesson:

PROJECT START RESEARCH
What is a green screen?
A green background in front of which moving subjects are filmed and which allows a separately filmed background to be added to the final image. The green screen is an integral part of the special effects process known formally as chromakey. Chromakey allows television producers and movie makers to use advanced technology to superimpose their subjects onto an unlimited number of different virtual backgrounds.
How does it work?
A color range in the top layer is made transparent, revealing another image behind. The chroma keying technique is commonly used in video production and post-production. This technique is also referred to as color keying, colour-separation overlay (CSO; primarily by the BBC[2]), or by various terms for specific color-related variants such as green screen, and blue screen
Name films that use this effect?
1. Alice in wonderland
2. The hunger games
3. Iron man
4. Life of Pi
5. Harry potter
6. Superman
Think of a one minute scene that you could make using the green screen?
There could be a person running past the screen making it look like they're running through a location and then the location could change as they run past or out of the forest.
Or there could be a moving image of a cave exit and someone pretending to run out of it showing them from the back and when they get out of it, they could then change it to another location outside the cave with the person walking from the front view and then the location zooming out as they walk.
