Take a tour of the world of green screen. Go anywhere in the world without leaving home!

Television news broadcasts use green screen technology constantly. 

We see green screen effects every day—in movies, on the web, and on your local weather forecasts. "Green screen" has become a common phrase today thanks to the internet and behind-the-scenes specials on popular movies. "How did they do that?" You’re going to find out in this discussion and demonstration of the magic of green screen.

Members of the Waltham Film Factory will troll the web for the best examples of green screen effects and break them down scene by scene. Green screen enthusiasts can ask the questions they’ve always wanted answered.

A live camera will be set-up to capture volunteers and see how the compositing of the effect works up close.  We will demonstrate the importance of lighting a green screen and how to get the best key.

Participants can choose from a scene in a movie, a TV commercial and much more.

This event is FREE, but registration is required. Doors open at 6:30pm. The screening begins at 7:00pm.
