Creating green screen vids and overlaying them on Flash sites

Question

I've heard of a thing where I can record a video in front of
a green screen and create a flash movie to overlay on a flash
website. It almost looks like the person is living and walking
around on the site. Can some one please give me more info on this
and the tools I need to make this. I feel like I'd need the Media
Server to serve this, but I'd use Premiere to edit video, right?

Thanks in advance.

Your thinking is correct. You'd use something like Premiere to chroma key the green to a transparent background (I'm sure there's a pile of tutorials out there), and encode to a Vp6 flv (sorenson spark doesn't support alpha channel). Now you've got a transparent video, and everything in your flash movie (at a lower depth than that of your video object) will show through.

For delivery you could use FMS, but it wouldn't be a requirement.You could just as well serve the video via http (progressive).
