Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

I will cover the “why” behind greenscreen and showcase how this simple trick can empower the learning of any curriculum content. I will be using Powerpoint, remove bg, unscreen, and WeVideo. I want to make sure teachers know they can use free tools to make their creations come to life. Tools like WeVideo make this process so much easier. It is ultimately their choice to see what tool to use. I guarantee teachers will leave this session wanting to use the power of the green screen!
