What is Crown Fountain?
The Green Screen App by DoInk is very versatile. I love to think of new ways to use it besides overlaying video captured before green screen. If you create PNGs (images with transparent or empty sections) you can put live video, pre-recorded video, or animations behind the PNG. There are SO many possibilities for creating interactive art and images this way. The Crown Fountain is a perfect subject for creating an interactive image since it was designed to be an interactive public sculpture/fountain in Chicago. They feature video of close up and cropped faces. Below you can see how easy it is to layer the PNG I created on the top line of the app and use the camera pointed towards yourself to record your face. The app captures audio as well. What would you say to all those that pass by if you were on the crown fountain?
HINT: I made the template by masking out the fountain in Superimpose App and saved using "mask as PNG". Then I moved the PNG to Keynote where I added a photo of a brick wall with a black and white filter behind the opening. Then I set the transparency of the bricks to 30% so it would be see-through enough to give a similar effect as found in the original photo. Then I grouped the images, copied to the clipboard, and imported it back into superimpose app using "clipboard" import where I could save it all again now with the brick overlay with "mask as PNG." (crazy? I know!) But, you don't have to bother. You can download my template here.

Other ResourcesA while back I created a project based on The Crown Fountain using still images combined in other apps on the iPad and video made with a custom Photo Booth effect. You'll see if you explore the post that I was trying to create what the GREEN SCREEN APP does super easily. |
