Hey,

I currently am a stop motion animation creator and I've come from an Adobe background. Things being as they are I can't afford their subscription mode so have moved to free/less expensive apps Gimp being one.
I am in the middle of a project and I have a program, Dragonframe, where I put in a .psd document (Lego face items;eyes, mouth, and brows). And I can select frames where certain shapes will mimic speech. I have this working (content generated from Gimp) BUT I need to add a green screen mask BEHIND the graphics. So what I'm looking for is how to do it. As a longtime Photoshop user my hands just instinctively go to keystroke but I have finally figured out 90% of what I need. I'm here to fill in the holes.

Thanks,
Joe B
