Christa McAuliffe Technology Conference

In this session participants will discover techniques for engaging students of any age using green screens, props, and other video production tools using mobile devices. Using an iPhone 7+ or an iPad, we will explore Do Ink, an iOS green screening app. Let your creative juices flow as you rotate through a series of stations to explore and later build a production of your own. At the portable green screen stand station anything is possible. Simply capture a background image or video, add your green screen video and you are ready to go. Maybe you want to scale the Great Wall of China, dine with Tom Brady & Peyton Manning, own an awesome racecar, or eat the largest turkey club in the world. You can be anywhere or do anything with this simple tools. At the pizza station, explore the possibilities using green screen and blue screen pizza boxes to tell stories with self made puppets and props or borrow some of ours. Other stations will introduce alternative apps and tips for creating props and special effects on a low budget. Join us, roll up your sleeves, and have fun as we dive into these awesome and engaging tools. Look out George Lucas, here comes the Christa McAuliffe conference!
