This is me learning how to use a chroma key in final cut express HD. Its not intended to be a fantastic example, just part of the learning experience for myself.

  • did u use a green screen?

  • Yeah, but instead of standing in front of the green screen I just held a sheet of green construction paper out in front of me. Just a really basic variation on tried and true chroma key techniques :)

  • How do u do this on final cut express? Can u get final cut express with mac mini? and does that take a really long time to make or did u just decuide to make a shirt movie?

  • You should be able to run FCE on a mac mini. The system requirements for it are listed on the apple website. It didnt take very long to do this effect at all - its a very simplified take on doing a Chroma Key. Other work I have done with a green screen (with actors in front of the screen, instead of behind it) has been far more intensive.

  • Cool...now all you have to do is get really good at it and you'll be able to make yourself walk down a street.

  • is that a subtle jibe at my stature or an example of something to strive for? :)

  • @temper1famas

    actually it may well be a piece of paper or small piece of chroma key but he must of keyed out the paper or chroma and replaced with the background...

    but thats just a thought
