There is nothing else I can do except planning and making sure everything is in order. I need to make sure the costume design for Maddie Holburn is perfect, and I need to make sure that the voice messages sound good. I also wanted to have a scene where there is "breaking news" of what Maddie received a voice message about. For example, after she listens to the voice message telling her that someone would have won the lottery, on the TV behind her, there is breaking news that someone had just won the lottery, and Maddie is in shock. This not only gives an extra sense of credibility to the voice messages, but also adds to the effect that they are real. Maddie, of course, will act extremely shocked, and a close-up could be used to emphasize her facial expressions and emotions.
I found this site, http://breakyourownnews.com/, that generates fake news articles and segments for you. I think this could be very useful for the TV segment and make editing a lot easier for me. I'm excited for what's to come. This is what the sample looks like:
Thanks for reading! I'll keep you guys updated on everything, as usual. Have a great rest of your break! Talk to you guys soon. :)
