For this final project, I wanted to expand on the story of Rikaro. I chose to continue the story after the hijacking of the TV. That was my video project. For this, I had an insider send an unknown detective a VHS that contained evidence on who this mysterious hacker was and their plan. It has audio of a famous Professor giving a speech to citizens that are against Aggressive Technologies and the unknown hacker’s. His speech is violently interrupted by a robot from Aggressive Technologies, but it is revealed to be Rikaro. Rikaro explains that he will kill this Professor and frame Aggressive Technologies to gain more supporters. He also adds that he will use bots to spread this narrative. I wanted to show some of the dangers of AI without it being too serious. There are researches that show the possibility of AI assisting hackers in infiltrating power plants to alter the temperatures, which can lead to explosions. I just altered this to robots.
I hope everyone enjoys the video. It took a little more work than I thought it would. Thanks for taking the time!
The use of still shots works well for the opening. For the speech section, it might have been better to use some footage of a speech, just so there’s movement. The editing was very good though, especially with all the different elements.
