1. Your greenscreen should have as few wrinkles as possible.
2. Place your subject 3 to 5 feet in front of your greenscreen.
3. Light your greenscreen and your subject separately.
4. Using a tripod, shoot your video - Record yourself or your subject in front of the greenscreen.
5. Upload your video to the computer.
   • If the video was taken with a phone, upload the video to your OneDrive cloud service to download it into the computer editing software.
   • If you used the Canon video camera, remove the SD Card from the camera and insert it into the computer.
6. Open the iMovie application on the computer.
7. Locate the video(s) you took and drag them into the 'My Media' bin.
8. Drag your background/graphic into the middle of the timeline section.
   • Click on the cropping tool and then choose 'Fit'. (Anytime you upload a video or graphic into iMovie, it defaults to the 'Ken Burns' effect, which is a slow zoom effect, and you typically don't want this when using a greenscreen.)
9. Drag your video into the timeline, placing it above the background/graphic.
10. Extend the background/graphic to match the length of your video by.
11. Now select your video and click on the video overlay icon.
12. Using the dropdown menu that is currently selected as 'Cutaway', choose 'Green/Blue Screen'
13. You'll need to use the 'Clean-up' tools now.
    • Click on the cropping icon and move the corners to cut off any edges that you don't want in the video.
    • Click on the eraser icon and erase any imperfections (you only get one chance to erase, so try to erase all imperfections with the first click)
14. Click on the checkmark to accept all changes and apply the effect.

1. Ensure the video camera is zoomed in enough so that the edges of the light board (learning glass) are not on the video.
2. Additionally, ensure that autofocus is not on, and that the subject that will be behind the learning glass is in focus, as well as the content being written on the glass. (You may need assistance with this step from the coordinator on duty.)
3. Begin recording.
4. Turn the lights off in the room.
5. Shoot your video.
6. Turn the lights back on and stop recording.
7. Upload your video to the computer.
   • If the video was taken with a phone, upload the video to your OneDrive cloud service to download it into the computer editing software.
   • If you used the Canon video camera, remove the SD Card from the camera and insert it into the computer.
8. Open the iMovie application on the computer.
9. Locate the video(s) you took and drag them into the 'My Media' bin.
