Video Transcript

"And now we're ready to cut the backing board or your foam board. Use the same procedure for this as you did the matte board. With a nice sharp blade hopefully it's going to cut perfect. Okay, the easiest way for me and most people is to just trace what you cut here on your matte board. Trace that so you have a perfect fit. To the exact same size as your matte board.
