Project 2: SuperHero Me!

What superhero ability would you like to have? Super Strength, Super Stretch, Super Speed, Weather Control, the ability to fly... For this project we will be using the green screen to take a picture of yourself in a super hero pose (think about what your ability will be). Then you will add special effects and a cool background to your image to show off your secret ability! 

If you dont want to take your own picture, you can use one of Mr. Fuge by clicking HERE.

Project Requirements:

Must have a background image

Must have a person (bonus points for your own picture!)

Must have at least one other object (flames, truck, lightning, plane, motion blur, dog...)
