1. Create a folder called Green Screen Backgrounds.
2. Find three different backgrounds and download this to your folder. The backgrounds must be of a high resolution, remember your videos are 1080 pixels wide so find images that are at least the same size or larger otherwise the quality of the image will take away from your shot. When you search for images look for HD images.
3. Based on your backgrounds shoot a short green screen scene to match each of your chosen backgrounds. Be sure to light your greenscreen correctly and follow the greenscreen tips and tricks - Green screen tips and tricks
4. Edit the clips using the appropriate backgrounds and the chroma key features of Final Cut Pro.
Since there is only one studio with the green screen your crew will only have one chance to shoot your shots and only 20 minutes to do so so practice your shots beforehand.
