I have been looking into more ways to add effects to my poetry reading videos and I had researched using green screens. Since these days I haven’t been going to many places as of late because of the COVID19 Pandemic, this was a perfect opportunity to learn how to use a green screen and how to film myself reading poetry in different places. The other day, I filmed my first poetry reading using a green screen, but once I was finished, I noticed there were a few technical glitches. 1). My skin looks a bit purple and 2), my hand looks like it disappears for a second – I need to learn more about “masking.” For the most part, I didn’t think it was too awful for my first try. I am hoping people listen more to my poem, than point out the technical mistakes that I made…. Feel free to leave comments (or helpful suggestions!). Enjoy the reading!
