MTV Movie Award Green Screen

This past Sunday the MTV Movie Awards, although not much of an award show just mostly a giant advertisement, aired live. During the show, there was a segment where the host Rebel Wilson green screened herself into movies that were nominated for academy awards. For example, In Les Mis when Anne Hathaway is singing "I dreamed a dream" Rebel inserts herself in the back as "lead whore" and fights with the director. She does this in Life of Pi as well. The green screening was very realistic and looked a lot more professional then mine obviously. Before this class, I would have thought how cool it was that she looked like she was literally in the scene but now I know it's not that hard, all ya need is a good green screen set-up. Unfortunately I can't find any videos of it but I have some pictures of it.

Motion Graphics On Television

A lot of television channels use motion graphics for intros to shows and commercials for shows. They can be very intricate with their design and they are very interesting to watch. I found a website that showed a lot of good ones but I picked a few of my favorites to post here.

I thought this introduction to MTV was very good. I enjoyed all the colors and the complexity of it but I was not able to post the video. You can view it on the website I posted above.

I thought this video was good for the SyFy channel.

This last video is for FX and it is very interesting because it shows the steps of how they made the final product. It shows you from storyboards to every step they take after filming. You can view the full commercials on the website.
