This document outlines techniques for green screen, split screen, keyframing, and color manipulation effects that can be demonstrated in Final Cut video editing software. It provides examples of projects from past students that utilized these techniques, such as green screen replacements, split screens, effects that fade in/out or move/resize over time. The document instructs students to work in groups to plan, film footage, learn an editing technique, script and create a screencast demonstration of that technique in Final Cut to share with others.

- 1. Green Screen Split Screen Using Key Frames Colour Manipulation and Effects FINAL CUT MASTER CLASSES
- 2. TECHNIQUES EXPLAINED • Green screen technology is the basis of the effects seen in everything from the latest Hollywood blockbusters to the weather forecast. The idea is simple. If you shoot a video with a single coloured backdrop (blue or green is often used) ‘Chroma Key’ allows you to make that colour transparent - replacing it with any other video clip, graphic or still image. • Split Screen – having more that one image on the screen at the same time. It can be different images with different framing, the same image copied and made to look like a checkerboard, the same figure reproduced in the same background, layering one image on top of another • Keyframing allows you to alter the appearance of the video by adding special effects part way through so they fade up or down, make the frame/shot to be bigger or smaller, to move from side to side or even move it across the screen • Colour manipulation and effects allows you do more that just make a clip black and white, brighter or darker. You have total control and create effect from films like Sin City, Pleasantville and add tints (subtly as well a obviously) – you will choose about 10 to demonstrate (some simple, some complex)
