The video opens with clip from Spiderman Three in which James Franco is
flying on the Green Goblin Glider and reveals himself to Tobey Maguire.
The clip is freeze-framed and Acting With James Franco appears in
yellow text. The text changes to Chapter Two: Greenscreen Acting. The
Image cuts to James Franco and his brother, Dave Franco, in what
appears to be a living room. Dave is standing on top of a pet carrier.



James Franco: You are on the glider. Behind you is the greenscreen and that means they can put anything they want behind you.



Dave Franco: Yeah.



James Franco: They want to put you a zoo, you’re flying through the zoo.



Dave Franco: Yeah.



James Franco: You’re on the glider.



Dave Franco: Ok.



Dave Franco physically preps himself as though he were actually on the glider.



James Franco: Ok.



Dave Franco: Alright.



James Franco: You see it? You’re flying on the glider.



Dave Franco: Yep.



James Franco: You’re the Goblin.



Dave Franco: Right.



James Franco: You’re out to get Spiderman.



Dave Franco: Yep.



James Franco: There he is. You’ve gotta watch out. The web’s coming at your face.



Dave Franco ducks and covers his face as though he were being attacked.



James Franco: Duck. No the other way. He just kicked you in the face.



Dave Franco: Ok. Alright.



James Franco: He just kicked you in the face.



Dave Franco: Alright, you’ve gotta tell me which way to go.



James Franco: Well, you’ve gotta know which way to go.



Dave Franco: Ok.



James Franco: Now Dr. Octopus is throwing the legs at you.



Dave Franco: Yeah,



Dave Franco is precariously balanced on the pet carrier.



James Franco: Now…



Dave Franco almost falls off the pet carrier.



James Franco: Whoops. Ok, now there’s a dinosaur. A tyrannosaurus rex.



Dave Franco: Ok.



Dave Franco moves around on the pet carrier in an uncertain way.



James Franco: That’s how you’re going to dodge a Tyrannosaurus rex.



Dave Franco: How am I supposed to dodge a T-Rex?



James Franco: I would, like, you know, take him out.



Dave Franco gives James Franco a look.



Dave Franco: Yeah. Legs are hurting.



James Franco: Ok, now. Spiderman is throwing webs at you.



Dave Franco: What? What are you…



James Franco begins throwing things from around the room at Dave
Franco. James Franco throws papers, clothes, and even a partial roll of
duct tape. Dave Franco tries to dodge them.



James Franco: You gotta dodge that



Dave Franco: Don’t…bro



James Franco: You gotta dodge that. Not look at me. You gotta look at the camera.



Dave Franco: Alright.



James Franco: Anything could happen in green screen.



Dave Franco: Ok.



James Franco: Dinosaurs.



Dave Franco: Ok.



James Franco: Socks. Bottles.



James Franco throws empty plastic bottles at Dave Franco.

Dave Franco is breathing hard.



James Franco: It’s hard isn’t it?



Dave Franco: Yeah.



James Franco: It’s hard, flying around New York City on that board.



Dave Franco: Yeah.



James Franco: They think it’s fake, but it’s tough.



Dave Franco: Yep.



James Franco: You saw it right here. That’s how it’s done.



Dave Franco: Can I get down?
