Featured in "Best New Apps in Education" in iTunes. Green Screen by Do Ink makes it easy to create incredible green screen videos and images right on your iPad. Classroom-tested by kids and teachers, this app emphasizes ease-of-use and simplicity while still enabling you to get fantastic results. With Green Screen by Do Ink, you can tell a story, explain an idea, and express yourself in truly creative and unique ways.
You know what a "green screen" effect is, right? It's used in the movies to make it look like the actors have landed on an alien planet, and it's used on TV to make it look like your local news announcer is standing in front of an animated weather map. The green screen effect works by combining images from multiple sources into a single video. These images can come from photos or videos in your camera roll, or from the live video camera.
Green Screen by Do Ink has all the features you need to make great green screen videos, including:
• use the live video camera, or import prerecorded videos, photos, and artwork
• combine up to 3 image sources at a time
• record videos in high definition or standard definition formats*
• capture still images and save them to the camera roll
• scrollable timeline makes it easy to sequence your videos and photos
• move image sources around on the timeline
• trim videos on the timeline to keep only the parts you need
• mix audio tracks from your videos and from the live camera
• easy color picker tool to set the chroma key color
• move, scale, rotate, and crop your image sources
• mask out unwanted areas in your image sources
• preview your video before you save it
• save recorded videos to your camera roll (and from there to YouTube, email, etc.)
• create multiple projects and reusable templates
Making videos with Green Screen by Do Ink is really fun, and you can use it to make movies that entertain and amaze. But there are loads of practical uses for this app, too! Use it to explain ideas visually, to make more compelling presentations, to tell stories that engage your audience. Whether it’s for fun, for school, or for work, Green Screen by Do Ink makes it easy to express yourself in a unique and captivating way.
Tips for Getting Great Results
You can make a decent green screen video under less than ideal conditions, and you can make a really great video by taking a few extra steps:
The quality and color of the backdrop you use makes a difference. Your results can be improved if your backdrop is a bright, fully saturated color and if it's made from a matte, non-reflective material. You can find an inexpensive green muslin backdrop online by searching for a "green screen backdrop".
Good lighting helps. You don't need special "movie lights", but you'll find that your results improve when your backdrop and subject are well lit. Minimizing shadows on your backdrop can also help considerably.
Make sure that objects in your video (including people and clothing) aren't similar in color to your backdrop - otherwise, they'll be transparent!
Consider mounting your iPad on a tripod or stand. Holding your camera still while recording in front of a green screen can improve the quality of your video.
Experiment with the chroma key color and sensitivity settings. Getting them right makes a big difference.
*Note that the front-facing cameras on iPad 2 and 3 models don't support HD video; in this case, the app records video at a lower resolution and scales it up.

Do your kids love to tell stories?
Want a great way to encourage creativity in your children?
Like many parents, you answered "YES" to both of these questions. Now you can help your child's creativity grow with Story Patch, a beautiful new application for the iPad that children can use to create their own picture books. With hundreds of included images, easy-to-use controls, and the ability to import photos, your kids will be creating fun and engaging stories in no time!
Want to see Story Patch in action? Check out a demo on our website!

Be sure to read some of our reviews too!
From the Washington Post--"Great iPad Apps for Kids"
http://wapo.st/GreatIPadApps
From Wired.com--"Story Patch: A New Storytelling iPad App for Fun, Education and Sharing"
http://www.wired.com/geekdad/2010/09/story-patch/
KEY FEATURES OF STORY PATCH
*Story Patch comes with over 800 illustrations that can be used to bring your child's stories to life.
*Story Patch also comes with characters that your child can customize! Create characters that fit seamlessly into each page of your story by changing facial expressions, body position, skin and hair color, and more!
*Story Patch has easy-to-use controls for making illustrations look exactly the way your child wants.
*Story Patch allows your child to import photos from the iPad's photo library to use as backdrops in a story.
*After your child has created his or her masterpiece, share it with friends and family by emailing a PDF version of the story with just a tap of a button.
*Story Patch also includes a set of story themes that younger children can use to create stories with help. After your child selects a theme, Story Patch asks your child a series of questions and then builds a story based on his or her responses. Story Patch inserts all of the text, so your child simply has to illustrate each page of the story.
BENEFITS OF STORY PATCH
*Unleashing your child's creativity-- Children can be extremely imaginative with Story Patch because the software takes care of all of the tedious aspects of creating a story. When you were a kid writing a story in school, remember how much effort was spent on printing a few lines of text and sketching a few drawings by hand? You spent so much time on those details that there was little time left to create a truly original story and bring your vision to life.
With Story Patch, the time consuming details disappear because there are so many illustrations at you child's disposal and typing is a breeze on the iPad. This allows your child to devote his or her time to being creative and crafting a memorable story. There is a popular saying in business that people should work smarter, not harder. With Story Patch, your child can CREATE smarter, not harder.
*Hours of fun engaging your child's mind-- Children are inherently creative, and storytelling is a NATURAL behavior for kids. Story Patch provides children with a new avenue for exploring the fun and excitement of telling stories. Because Story Patch is so intuitive, it encourages children to delve deeper into their creative selves to compose original stories about everything from saving the world, to winning a world championship, to befriending animals in the forest. Story Patch will provide hours of entertainment while it engages your child's mind and stimulates new ideas, a great alternative to spending hours in front of the television!
