EYEWITNESS NEWS - SPECIAL BROADCAST ANNOUNCED MONDAY MARCH 1, 2010
Hello everyone its been such a while that I've last updated everyone! In fact the last time I updated everyone was last year, haha. Well anyway glad to be back. The Hiatus is now over, and I'm proud to announce that I'm working on several scripts for future SBN 2 broadcast including the first full newscast that many people have patiently been waiting for for several years now, haha. The last full broadcast aired back in October 2007, over 2 years ago. And Eyewitness News will make a return this year. The second broadcast of the season will be devoted to earthquake shattered Haiti. Expect to see over 30 minutes of SBN 2 on this special broadcast. The broadcast will air on April 12th, 2010 on the 3rd month Anniversary of the devasting earthquake. I also plan on releasing the broadcast on the same day as well. Stay tuned for more information!
EYEWITNESS NEWS - SPECIAL REPORT NOW AVAILABLE SATURDAY OCTOBER 17, 2009
Well after nearly 6 months of work the collaborative videos are finally available! SBN 2 HD and Jpro07 Studios collaborated to produce Turbulence 2 a rather interesting story about several passengers who fly on an ill-fated passenger flight from fictional Forix City to New Port. SBN 2 has produced a fictional Special Report story for the movie. The Special Report has been uploaded to my YouTube Channel, along with links to John Rojas' Turbulence 2 the sequel to the first film released last year. I also uploaded a High Quality HD version of the same Special Report to this website, the links to download the broadcast are posted here:
This is officially the first broadcast of Season III of Eyewitness News. The full debut broadcast is still a work in progress there is still no definitive date on when the 6:00PM broadcast will premiere, only time will tell, in the meantime enjoy this latest broadcast!
A new revamped broadcast center is also in the works as well for the Third Season in the meantime I will keep these links up for you to download the broadcasts.
EYEWITNESS NEWS - SPECIAL REPORT ANNOUNCED MONDAY AUGUST 17, 2009
Its been 2 months since I last updated everyone on the latest that is occurring here. Rest assured, I'm hard at work on bringing this new broadcast to you all. The first broadcast an (EYEWITNESS NEWS SPECIAL REPORT), of the season is actually part of a feature machinima known as "Turbulence" Directed by John Rojas (jpro07) and Written by (Blessed3126). He and I have been hard at work over the past few weeks putting together this news report and machinima movie.
The movie is actually a two part film (the first part already available) and it is about 6 people who are facing a major life changing decision and board a large commercial airliner known as Metro Air Flight 559 on Friday April 11, 2008. Their lives are explored as the fateful flight commences from Forix City, USA to its destination, in New Port, USA. I can't disclose too much information because the movie and the broadcast still haven't been released and are still in production.
Anyway the broadcast should be available by the end of the month or perhaps in September. The broadcast will be done before the movie, but I will not release the broadcast to the public until the movie is released, again this is to avoid spoilers and etc. So there is no definitive date on when the first broadcast of the season will be released but I am speculating that it should be done by the end of the month or perhaps the first week of September. I'm also working on releasing the first full 6:00PM news broadcast of the season too, which has been delayed countless and numerous times. Once I finish work on the Turbulence, I will begin work on the upcoming 6:00PM broadcast which I hope to finally release by the end of September.
The website's theme has been modified, slightly to correlate with the new on-air look of SBN 2. The splash page has also been updated. Stay tuned for more information on the progress and the debut of the third season of SBN 2!
A QUICK CHECK IN SUNDAY APRIL 12, 2009
Like I said on the previous update which was about 4 months ago, SBN 2 has been put on hold due to so many things that have been going on in life, lol. I know its been so long and the broadcast is been delayed several times. Its not canceled, it will air, just not anytime soon, perhaps this summer? I really hope to get it done by then and perhaps release a few more broadcasts before calling a quits and ending the series by the end of the year or perhaps mid next year. I'm still planning to revive the series again by the summer, there is a lot of work that still needs to be done, including some more graphical work and alot more time consuming things, commercials, promos and getting some voices. So it will be a while before the first broadcast of the new season will be out. The newscast's airdate will probably change, and air in the summer, so it will essentially take place a year later. I'm also working with John Rojas, creator of the very successful outstanding two part movie, titled Turbulence, the finale to that movie is set to be released by the summer as well and I'd like to tie the SBN 2 storyline to the events that take place in Turbulence. But for now SBN 2 is on hiatus, but not forgotten, things will eventually progress.
