To edit each of these clips, I used the same method as that of which I used for my first green screen practice. With the 'Invisible Cloak', there was a slightly different approach, and because of this, the person does not go completely invisible.

This clip was difficult to edit, in that as the camera was not on a tripod, the footage moved around a bit, and the mask I selected kept leaving the green screen and including some of the backgrounds; therefore, part of the hand was slightly cropped out of the clip. Another difficulty with this edit was the actual green screen itself, as there was some shadow to contend with, but after a few attempts, I managed to eliminate the majority of this. I have combined the green screen with jump cuts so that as Joss jumps, the background changes to a new scene.
With this edit, as the green screen did not entirely surround the background behind the person, I was unable to remove the background from this layer, which is why the cloak is not entirely invisible (as the other background shows through only where the cloak is. To create an invisibility cloak effect, I had the person hold a green blanket to act as a green screen, whilst holding a blanket of a different colour on the inside. The blanket worked fairly well as a green screen, apart from the white stitching around the edges, and the fact that I chose to film in a location with a lot of green in the background.
