Part of Lesson Plan: Digital Story 3: Using Photoshop CS to Create Story Pages

Activity Overview / Details

(15 minutes)

Ask students about printing requirements for their project. [Students will volunteer answers. Make sure to remind them that they have taken these requirements down on paper and to refer to them before answering.]

Teacher says: “Next, you will show me you understand the concepts that the videos have shown you by taking an image of a football player in front of a green screen and putting that into the picture of the beach/island scene. These photos are located at ____________.” (Have the attached resources downloadable from a specific location.)

Students will now try to put the football player into the beach scene. They will also attempt to label their picture using the text tool. Walk around and help students as they attempt this on their own.

Once you are satisfied that everyone has a grasp of the technique, have them take out or open up their own green screen poses and their backgrounds for their digital story.
