Green Screen & Community Event Coverage Classes at SCATV

Interested in learning how to make videos using the Green Screen? Maybe you want to learn how to record community events? Sign up today!

The Tricaster switchers in both of SCATV’s studios make using the green screen for virtual sets easy. This one-session class will show you how to use the virtual set templates in the Tricaster or create your own backgrounds for your show. The virtual set editor allows you to set up zooms and pans, and various camera angles digitally, without camera operators for professional-looking effects. Learn the basics in this class, and then schedule time in the studio to practice and import your images and clips.
