Website Progression - creating articles

I'm baaack! your now locked on shahram moosa's blog...That's Right!!! so this one goes out to all my people, and I'm going to do it like this.

So i started off by getting the log in details for our WIX website from a fellow group member and then began by working on the different pages within our website, the main pages that interested me were the "Sports" and "Arts and Entertainment" page.

This is where i felt i could make the most contribution as part of a group to get the most out of our website and because i read the news and watch TV a lot of the times, I'm up to date with the latest stories happening around the world.

Having said that i decided to base the sports page of our website on the recent boxing fight between "Manny Pacquiao" and "Juan Manuel Marquez" i found this to be a good story as it shows boxing as its best and shows two elite boxing athletes representing the boxing industry, reviews have shown and critics said that it went down as one of the best fights in history showing the excitement in sports.

Furthermore i then decided to base the arts & entertainment page on the biggest singing competition in the world which I'm sure your all aware of...THE X-FACTOR! i personally felt that this topic will bring out a lot of entertainment as the contestants who sing for their fate narrowed down from 12 to the final 2, with two of the best singers to have come on the show, it ended with a victory to James Arthur and the second position went out to Jahmene Douglas.

To create the articles i simply added original content written by me for both the sports page and the arts & entertainment page, i then searched for some images relating to the story and then put it all together to make a professional looking article as part of our WIX website.

News Package - Storyboard

December 5th... this may be my last blog for this coursework, so anyways i would like to begin by saying that i shahram moosa, one of the members of the CLN group recorded a video clip of our news package storyboard and uploaded it through YouTube, furthermore i also drew a sketch for our news package project based on our news group CLN, you can see i have organised the sheet in terms of 9 frames, where i have drawn the order chronologically from what appears right from start to finish.

You can find the video clip of our CLN - News package storyboard at the bottom of this blog 

The structure of our storyboard which i have sketched on paper goes from the following:

  1. (Voice over + filler shots) there is a voice over as various filler shots are displayed on the screen such as smoking and cigarette related images
  2. (Normal interview) there is an interview with parents or guardian speaking about their views on smoking, the parent is usually from a family where one of the child in the family smokes so the interview will be in more depth with detail as its a personal experience
  3. (News strip band/label + voice over) there is a mid shot of the news strip while a voice over explains what the news strip is displaying from the normal parent interview
  4. (Voice over + filler shots) there is another voice over with some more filler shots relating to effects smoking have on the body
  5. (Expert interview) there is an expert interview with a smoking specialist/consultant having a discussion with someone who is currently smoking giving them tips and advice to try and stop and so on
  6. (Facts & statistics + voice over) there is several information from smoking related facts and statistics which is rehearsed from a voice over
  7. (Statistic filler shot + voice over) there is a visual image of a pie chart that represents smoking related illnesses while a voice over explains this
  8. (Vox pops) there is a set amount of questions that is going to be asked to the members of the public on their views on smoking and cigarettes
  9. (Up sum) there is a voice over who establishes our news package and ends it in a conclusion
Here as you can see i have finally uploaded a video clip of our CLN news package storyboard after several attempts of converting the file to see if it would work but no luck however with very hard work i did manage to find a way to succeed in the end.

The quality of the video has been affected during the process of uploading it on blogger, beside that everything else is in perfect condition.
