Green Screen Animation.

What was your idea? Our idea was to use the green screen and a Panasonic video recorder to merge both videos together, using the technology of Premiere Pro CS5. We decided on creating a video of Charlotte chasing herself in a kind of zombie genre, making the green screen video look a lot smaller than the first video we recorded outside. How did you come up with your idea? We decided on our idea brain storming and deciding on which idea would come out and look more effective and which would look the least edited/more realistic. We decided to brainstorm quite simple ideas to begin with, and then build up these ideas to come up with something that could be quite effective. How did you create your animation? To create our animation, we used the green screen that was already being used by others students in our class to create the effect on two different videos merging together, this would in turn create one video, which we could then edit however we wanted. To create our animation, we used Premiere Pro CS5, which allowed us to merge the two videos together and edit them in the way that we wanted. What technologies did you use? When creating our green screen animation, we used Premiere Pro CS5, a Panasonic video recorder and YouTube. What problems did you encounter? We only encountered a few problems when creating our animation, one of them being trying to get the two videos which were recorded to match in time, and make them look as real as possible. During the editing process, we also had to flip one of the videos to make it look as if Charlotte was really chasing herself, otherwise the video would have shown her running in the wrong direction. How did you overcome these difficulties? To overcome the difficulties we encountered, we had to use the features in Premiere Pro CS5 to rotate the video which was causing us problems, once we had done this, there were no other difficulties that had to be overcome. Altogether, it was a very enjoyable task.
