[Skills] Using Chromakey

Background

First, do some quick Internet research to find out what Chromakey is and how it works. Then, you will film a quick Chromakey scene to edit later with OpenShot.

Questions

  1. What was the first film to use the chromakey process?
  2. Briefly describe how the chromakey process works.
  3. What items or materials are necessary for chromakey to work properly?

Filming

Once you have answered those questions, please see the teacher. Your answers will be checked for correctness. You will then get a chance to record a short scene in front of the chromakey screen.

Once you have recorded the scene, use OpenShot's chromakey filter to modify your video appearance.
