How to Create a Newscast Using iMovie and Green Screen Technology
1. Buy a green screen sheet for $20.00. http://www.tubetape.net/servlet/the-Green-Screens-fdsh--Backdrops-cln-Chromakey-Green/Categories?affiliate_no=116&gclid=CK3jpP6l64CFYIUKgodVGruLw
2. Dewrinkle the sheet and hang it in the classroom where it will remain unwrinkled.
3. Download free teleprompter software (Mirror Script) at:
http://www.freetelepromptersoftware.com/ Computer will be used as the
teleprompter
4. Create an assignment sheet for students to follow for a newscast:
a. Who, What, Where, When and Why
b. Have students email you their story or give to you on a flashdrive
5. Edit story with students.
6. Copy and paste script into teleprompter in order of news stories reported.
7. Open up iMovie.
8. Set up computer with camera facing the green screen/background
9. Click on File, Import from Camera, click on capture and then capture again
10. Make sure the entire background in the computer is all green screen.
11. Students cannot where green or yellow…white doesn’t work well either.
12. Have students pick high resolution (large) pictures for their background.
13. Insert pictures into iMovie and change the length time of the picture to longer than the actual
movie clip (this can always be adjusted later).
14. Once the picture background is inserted into iMovie then select the section of the movie clip
to insert, drag it over the picture and a menu will pop up that gives “green screen” as an
option.
15. Choose green screen.
16. Adjust video colors so characters look good.
17. Add titles, credits, transitions and music (there is actual newscast music in iMovie).
18. When finished upload to Teacher Tube or Youtube.
19. Make the link unlisted, only can see with link, and choose education for the category.
20. Put link on website or email to teachers to show in classroom.
21. Other Ideas:
a. Social Studies: “Reporting live from….whatever country they are studying”
b. Social Studies: Short movie clip on any historical event – dress the part with
background used from that era, country, place, time, etc
c. Science – Public Service Announcements on Disease, Infection, Pollution, etc
d. Language Arts – Book Summaries,
Commercial for a book
