Pete2012 Green screen – post all comments, questions, and suggestions on this parking lot. They will respond to any questions you have.

APPs for green screening: $2.99 and green screen movie effects $1.99 (good for the iPad)

Chromogreen is the color that is needed for the green screen.

You can buy a green screen called Yoostar off of Ebay or Amazon. //(I bought cloth at a discount fabric store - $2.99)//


 * Tubetape** has a good expensive green screen.

You can use Photobooth, flip camera,

You can use a flip camera to take videos againsgt the green screen then use effects in your video editing software (iMovie) ot overlay the picture or video background.

Make sure that the green screen is all in your viewer.

Watch distance between subject and green screen. The closer to to screen, the more chances to get shadows.

You may need to use light LED to get out shadows.

“This Day in History”

History.com - great source for relevant content.

Discoveryeducation.com is a great resource for videos and information, but it’s a subscription service. You can erase the voice and the kids can put their own voice in ….


 * Teleprompter app** may help those kiddos who have to read their scripts read them successfully.

Adobe premier elements was the movie maker that was used. This is a universal movie maker and it does a lot more than iMovie does.

2. Understanding GoogleSketchUp 3D Modeling 101
Can’t work with it on my computer as I need a higher version of the operating system - had to leave the session.

3. Moodle Book Club, It's Elementary
//*could you have a book club within the classroom using moodle where the kids can record their thinking instead of typing?//

//Would it be better to go to My Big Campus?//

//Would it better to use Edmodo?//

Cork board for the kids to post on virtual cork board – using sticky notes. Really neat little way to add to Moodle - was unable to get it to function on our Moodle as it did on theirs.

Linuet? Check out the name. //Couldn't find it.....//

Read, write, think….. a site to check out. http://www.readwritethink.org/

Quizlet

Study stack …check those out online…

Take the embed code and paste it into Moodle. http://quizlet.com/

Spelling city – teacher posts lists, students can practice with them. http://www.spellingcity.com/

4. Do the Mash....Tech Style!
Presented by Tracy Blazosky //(I saw her at IU - first grade teacher integrating tech into her classroom)// Glogster - http://edu.glogster.com/

More tips and tricks for green screen. A lot of the same information on where to get clips and how to green screen that I saw at my first session.
