Why iMovie?  Because it’s the most commonly available video editing program already loaded on to iPads in CPS.  This class focuses on mastering tools to allow your students to do their own green screen filming and editing in iMovie.  During this workshop you will create a short green screen movie of your own.  An iPad pre-loaded with iMovie is required to participate fully in this workshop.  An iPhone can be used, but class materials demonstrate the iPad interface, which is visually different from the iPhone.

If you are looking for a workshop for teachers who wish to edit their students’ projects, we recommend our spring workshop on using DaVinci Resolve to edit student projects. iMovie is not the optimal program for green screen editing, but it can be used successfully using the tips and tricks in this workshop!

Participants will:

·      Successfully create and edit a short green screen film in iMovie

·      Learn how to walk students through the process of using iMovie for their own needs, including file management and trouble-shooting tips for common issues.

·      Be introduced to a classroom green screen setup including backdrop and lighting that can costs under $100 total and can be stored in a small cabinet when not in use.

·      Establish best practices for helping students film that minimize challenges in editing and removing backgrounds.
