Using chroma key backgrounds

Today we attempted to use a chroma key background. If you were working with Miss Claire's class, this means we used a one colour background so that we could add our own background afterwards. We found out that it can be rather tricky (difficult) to do. I had another go at home with a blue background so I couldn't use blue clay.
When we try it again next week we need to put the background quite far away from our characters to stop as much shadow as possible. We also need to use more lighting.
Here are some videos to show you. If you need to use blue in a scene you can use a green screen. Blue and green screens work best. If you need to have blue and green in the same scene then use your own set. Well done for your work today and lovely singing in assembly. Enjoy your weekend!
