Previous versions of iMovie didn’t support green screen effects at all. Still, it was great to be able to do this at all, using my iPhone for still images and an older Sony GSC-Netsharing flash-based camcorder for the video shots. The green screen effects in our video were FAR from perfect, and the students look like washed-out ghosts in several of the sequences. The screenshot-based tutorial, “Mac OS X | How to Green Screen Using iMovie ’09” on iClarified was very helpful to me in figuring out how to do this, along with the following two YouTube tutorials. After turning on SHOW ADVANCED TOOLS in iMovie preferences, green screen effects are available in iMovie when you drag a green screen video sequence over another one already inserted into your project. I put the video together using iMovie ’09, and for the first time used green screen effects. Last month fifth graders in the Sunday School class I teach at our church recorded both still images and video to create a “remix” of a music video by the group, “Go Fish.” To seek formal permission for this remixed version, I posted the video as a YouTube response to the original music video.
