Blog Post #34 - S.K.B.D. News

S.K.B.D. News is a fake news site inside of my project, which appears at the beginning, as Fern as reading it. It is based off the BBC News website, and as seen in my Blog Post #20 - Cinematography, currently it is just the BBC News website with an edited "SKBD" logo. In order to make the news site seem more convincing, I must make articles and authors to replace the real ones. 


Here is the current image i used for the SKBD website in Blog Post #20.



Along with the changing of the articles, since I am changing the filming location of my project, I will also have to use a laptop. This means I will have to change the size of the image. Here is the edited size image.



I will go through with the editing of the image by changing the HTML code of the BBC website, and then editing the changed articles onto the existing image. S.K.B.D. stands for South Key Bureau of Detectives, because my project is filmed in Florida, and Florida is shaped as a key, and a prominent part of Florida are The Keys, a chain of Islands below the peninsula. Given this, is it supposed to be a Detective News site, so the articles will be crime based.




Here is the updated S.K.B.D. News website, that will be used in my project. The center article, and the other one marked with the red "LIVE" text, are the ones that relate to the content in my project. The other articles are random ones that I made, in order to invite a humorous element, or ones I left in that are real articles.

This will be the news website that Fern will be reading at the start of my project, and using this as a source to add information at the start will help me to develop Fern's background knowledge of the killer, in order to make the project more interesting.

Blog Post #16 - Initial Storyboard

Image
 In this post, I plan to give a general, current visual representation and sequencing for my project, and the scenes within it. These scenes include Fern and Ed speaking in the detective's office, Fern and Ed exiting the detectives office, Fern and Ed entering the car and driving in it, Fern and Ed appearing at the crime scene with the dead body, and possibly a scene featuring the killer.  This picture is a representation of the first scene, featuring an over-the-shoulder shot behind Ed, facing Fern reading the "S.K.B.D. News" This picture is a representation of the second scene, showing Ed and Fern leaving the office, through a two-shot, with Fern in the background, and Ed in the midground, picking up keys in the foreground. I chose this configuration to put emphasis on the keys.    These pictures are a representation of the fourth scene, which starts with an action cut from the last seen, showing Ed and Fern leaving the office driveway, through a wide shot.

Blog Post #41 - Obstacles Recording the Security Camera Scene

Image
 While me and my actors were getting ready to start recording, we ran into multiple unexpected problems. The scene I will be discussing in this post is the scene of the security camera footage, which features the Killer killing Lacey's Child, the Killer played by me, and the child by Ethan. The script for this scene has the killer approaching the child, and stabbing him, with (fake) blood flying out. Photo of me, Eriberto (Eddie) Mendoza, in the Killer's outfit before recording The problems we ran into may have been unexpected, but they were not unpredictable and could have been planned ahead. The biggest obstacle we ran into was the  weather . We noticed a few hours before, the sky had gotten gloomy, grey, and cloudy, but I dismissed it, being eager to start production. When my actors arrived at my house to record the scene, I felt a drop come from the sky, at this point I was starting to get worried, the sky had gotten darker and more grey.  Recording When we went to st...
