I have used the green screen with students ranging from FS1 to A-Level. How do I use green screen with my classes?
To find out more how green screen works you can watch this helpful YouTube video. Once you have your video footage, filmed in front of the green screen, you can then superimpose different backgrounds which can include images or videos. DoInk app does cost but as mentioned it is better than other apps in my opinion. Some apps do come with a watermark and often there is a cost to remove the logo which is worth it as it will be clearly visible in your video.

There are a number of alternative apps available for green screen too such as Green Screen Pro for Android. You can read a step by step guide to using the app here.

Having tested a few out, I agree with Mark that DoInk is the most user-friendly app which also provides very professional and polished results. I also use the Green Screen app DoInk for iOS, which was recommended to me by Mark Anderson and is generally regarded as the best app to use with green screen in the classroom. Once you have your green screen ready you will need a device to film. You can also purchase a green screen stand too, so it is worth exploring the different options and asking what other colleagues or teachers online use but there is no need to break the budget! A teacher online stated that she bought a green paper table cloth from a discount shop and that worked fine, it really can be inexpensive. I know some schools have their own green screen room with a large space painted green whereas other teachers have improvised with what space they have. A green screen can literally be any green background – so green backing paper or felt on a classroom wall or simply paint a wall or section of the corridor green. This cloth is really useful as I can easily pack it away and transport it to different classrooms. I purchased a large green cloth from Amazon, (bargain at £4.99 here!) very basic and simple. It certainly doesn’t have to be that way or as time-consuming. I thought it would be much more complex and complicated than it actually is! My apprehension and reluctance were due to some training I received five years ago that wasn’t explained clearly and involved a very long process.
I was actually surprised how easy and simple green screen is to use within the classroom.
Students can share a story or get into character using a background setting of their choice – this is a classic example of using technology to do things that would not be possible without technology as suggested with the SAMR model. Green screen allows students to discuss, evaluate or reflect on their learning using their imagination and digital skills.

Green screen (or blue screen which works in the same way as blue and green are regarded as the best colours to use as they are the furthest colours away from human skin tones) allows the editor to remove the green background and replace the backdrop with an image or video of their choice. However, many teachers have been using this engaging and innovative technology in their classrooms, adding a new and exciting dimension to their lessons. Green screen is often associated with big blockbuster Hollywood films including many of my favourites such as Marvel Avengers and Harry Potter.
