"Murder by Commodore" began while
I was visiting with Robert, commenting
on the article about Jeri Ellsworth in
a recent LUCKY Report. One bit of
trivia from that article suggested a
mystery to me -- but I had not been
successful in putting it on paper.
A few weeks later, Robert sent me
the text, and I knew immediately that
this was MediaMeister material. The
next problem we discussed was getting
immages. Robert announced a contest
among the kids in his middle school
classes. One young man, Juan Chacon,
rose to the challenge. Three of his
illustrations fit the story.
For actors/models I caught two
parishioners after church. If I had
known that William Shantner was a
close personal friend of Robert's....
I am no artist, but we needed a couple
of close-up sketches.
I think such an illustrated story
is a kick. A poor man's motion(less)
Screen Play. Image, text, music --
brought together to become a gestalt!
Here is a great way for you, your
club, or user group to interface with
the larger community. Make a video of
this production and show it to visual
and language arts teachers. Creating
an illustrated story, or comic book,
or motionless screen play could be a
great class project. Or make it a
contest. Let us know, and LOADSTAR
will help with prizes.
