Members enjoyed filming spoken word performers Ingrid and Ray Halls reading their poems and stories against a green screen background. Over the next few weeks members will be busy editing to replace the green background in their shots with other images appropriate to the readings, and then we will watch the results and discuss lessons learned about this useful filmmaking technique.
