Creating the Flat Classroom Keynote…Behind the Scenes
Posted by: Dean Shareski in Classrooms, Video, digital stories, digitalstorytelling, flat worldIn creating the keynote for the Flat Classroom 2007 Project, I utilized chroma keying. Many seemed quite intrigued as to how I did it and although for most videographers, this is not a difficult or complicated task, for those entering into video editing it may seem a bit arduous. It’s not. This video demonstrates how I use chroma keying.
As I mention in my keynote and in this behind the scenes look, chroma keying has the WOW factor but with anything else it can be overused. I don’t claim to be an expert editor so for those with greater skill than I, excuse the rather crude editing and set up.
I think the potential for projects like Vicki’s and Julie’s would be to have students collaborate and create content that appears seamless;as if they were working in the same room. I like the recent Gmail video as one example as well.
I used Viddler based on Chris Harbeck’s use and it serves as a nice interactive video tool. Go ahead and leave a comment on the video itself.

Dean, I very much enjoyed your keynote. Great message, creative, brilliant! I have a large green piece of felt to try the green-screen effect, but haven’t yet tried it. Need to.
