Post Production

The screenshot on the left is the timeline which includes, the sound track for 'Rockstar', the images which replace the green screen and the original footage of the students and staff miming to the track. I first began by dropping in the footage onto the timeline and removing the audio. I then dropped the audio for 'Rockstar' on to the tab called 'Audio 1'. And then bit by bit I edited the original footage so it matched perfectly with the audio.

Once all of the footage of the staff and students was edited to fit the audio, I began removing the green screen behind them.

I removed the green screen by searching for ultra key in the effects search bar, and then selected the 'eye-dropper' tool and then clicked on the brightest part of the background, and the green screen will be removed. And then this allowed me to find an image from Worksop, and drop it onto the time line which is where all the pink images are on the timeline in the picture at the top.

For example, in the image above I removed the green screen and found an image of a bathroom showroom, as I believed it linked to the lyrics 'and a bathroom I can play baseball in it'.

The screen shot to the left shows the footage of students and staff, and this is the footage we take and drag on to the timeline to edit. And in the bottom right hand corner of the clips, there's a small symbol that indicates whether the clip has been edited in the timeline.
