    I have a video assignment to do and I'm stuck on ideas on what I could film. Basically I have to make a video that includes these 3 elements:

    - include myself
    - explosion effect
    - used green screen

    I will be using Adobe After Effects to do the explosion effect. So what are some cool ideas on what I could film using all 3 of these elements? keep in mind I can only film at my school so I can't take the camera off campus

    Way cool assignment. The easiest way would be to place yourself in front of the green screen and insert the explosion between you and a background.

    But if you are looking for a cool effect, try something "Hero" style: get a few friends, have them freeze in place while the camera moves around (or have one of them move the camera, since you must be in the shot) and freeze time when the explosion happens. No need for green screen, but you may get creative and have a frozen friend standing with a leg on a green block, to be keyed out and replaced with something simple (try to have him/her in front of a plain wall so it's easy to replace the support with a bit of motion tracking of the clean plate).
