Using the green screen

When we applied the Chroma Key filter to remove the green and add the space background, we noticed that the main character (Grace), had a purple face. We think this is because frantic movements looked like blurry motions on the camera, and this caused the chroma key filter to only partially removing the green behind the blurry motions, causing a purple color. Unfortunately, there is no fix for this, so we have configured the chroma key to show the least amount of purple, but there's still a lot of it.

Today we added the images of the houses and banks into the background. This was a bit tricky, and because we were rushed for time, we had to resort to pictures off of google images, which wasn't our first choice. But we think it will still look nice, and we made sure the building chosen were colorful and stand out, so that kids find them "fun"... 

This last lesson we've all pulled together to polish off our final piece, although we had to rush a bit, we still think it will turn out brilliant.

Hooray for optimism!
