Good morning! Today is Friday, June 21st, 2013,
and my hair's a mess. I just got it cut.
I have hardly anything prepared.
But we are going to try experimenting on that green screen stuff anyhow.
So let's get started.
Here I am going to commandeer my wife's bedroom,
for its smoothly painted walls of green.
To quote Peter Pan, "How clever am I?"
So, moving on, the chroma key started as a commercial product in the 1980s.
And there was an interesting promotional video put out by Microsearch,
for the Microsearch Chroma Key, which lets you "secretly RULE the universe!"
How?!? Well, with the Microsearch Chroma Key, we can be *anywhere*.
We can be in... ...your bedroom.
...Your kitchen.
...Paris!
...Mars!
You name it, we can be there, because we secretly rule the universe!
Having said that, let's move on to other angles.
Or... maybe we won't. Because I just wasted a bunch of time,
trying to get an overhead shot set with the camera mount and tripod,
so that I could be seen over the green carpeting,
flying through the traffic and that...
...and it just didn't work out, because the camera mount ended up breaking
and worse shape than it had when I totalled the bicycle.
So in the meantime, this is still the Year of Learning By Trying.
I am Joel 'TwistyNye,' and I will see you next week.
