Screencastify Instructions
How to Record a Screencast of Google Slides with Voice-over Narration
Green Screen Instructions
Before you start filming, you should have written the script, rehearsed your scenes, and created your credits slide or page. If you'd like to include background music or sound effects, you should have those selected as well. It's also a good idea to select your background images and/or videos ahead of time. See below for links to copyright-friendly collections for all these components.
You will film in front of a green screen using an iPad.
1. Have any background music and sound effects chosen and ready to play so that they can be recorded along with the narration when you film.
2. Be sure you either videotape or take one or more photos of your credits so they can appear at the end of the PSA.
3. Download your background images and photos onto the iPad. They will be saved in the camera roll.
4. Record your video using the iPad camera app (NOT the Do Ink app).
5. Open the Do Ink green screen app and create a new project. Your background images/videos will become the bottom layer and your iPad video will be the middle layer. (Top layer will remain empty.)
Video tutorials and more detailed written instructions on using the Do Ink app can be found here.
6. Your completed video can be saved in the iPad camera roll.
7. Share your completed video by airdropping it to your teacher or Ms. Herrmann.
If you want, you can import your video into iMovie to do additional editing before you share it.
