Journal #6

  1. I learned how to use the green screen effect in new ways. I used the effect on a green paper instead of a screen. I also learned how to edit and manipulate the green screen effect. I also learned how to layer videos.
  2. I was successful in using the green papers. The effect worked well and the outcome was satisfactory. I was successful in laying videos and getting them to all match up.
  3. I found it a bit frustrating to get the green screen effect to be exactly how I wanted it. It was a trail and error thing, and I came out with a lot of errors. Because I had so many layers with green screens on them, it was difficult to get the threshold and cutoff right.
  4. I used my time very well this week. I was diligent in filming and getting things recorded. I got a great start on editing my video and putting everything together. I think that I will be able to finish my video by the deadline.
