Answer 1

it's done with computer imaging. as to any more information i don't know.

Answer 2

its a process called chroma keying where the green background and any green you are wearing is earased by computer to leave another image underbeath.......they use it alot on tv for the weather maps and such like....when it is filmed the weatherman is not pointin at anything the map is added afterwards
if you have a digital camera and a plain green cloth you can do the same thing at home using photoshop
