iMovie: Green Screen

This morning I was helping a student with adding an image to the background of the green screen video clip he had already prepared. Luckily this student had already put his video together and had it ready to go for putting in the final touch... adding an image to the background of his clip. We found a high resolution image of space and I showed him how to take the video clip and drag it over top of the image and wait for the green (+) to appear. After multiple attempts this still didn't work. It turns out this was because we were using a clip that was already in the Project Library (as opposed to a clip from the (Event Library), for some reason this will not allow you to place the clip over the image.

So remember, the clip must be taken from the Event Library and then dragged and dropped into the project for it to give you the "Green Screen" option.
