Mock EAS: National Information Center Statement

A new-school crisis with an old-school screen... We have a rather interesting activation of the EAS this time around. I've not seen a crisis of this type in any other EAS video yet.

KRON 4 in San Fran breaks this story from the DoD... And NASA?

NOTES: Same as before... All tones are generated from ASCII to binary translation, and plugging into the DTFM Generator in Adobe Audition. The three starting bursts are still short, but you can tell they're subtly different from my first video... Least I hope so. Heh.

Comments always welcome!

@TFdude15 ... Y'know, I don't think I ever figured that out... Probably a backed-up toilet causing an electrical short and oxygen fire, knowing my brain. Heh.

But basically the idea was some sort of catastrophic failure where communication and control of the ISS was lost, and involved a rapid orbital decay. Explosion or something of the sort.

what happened on the ISS?

Thanks again. :)

And with the color, I was trying to do something a little different... Trying to visually get across, "Hey, this is something you need to be aware of, but it's not panic time yet". So that's why I opted away from red, even though it's a government message.

And I just don't like how washed-out the old school orange was on this template.

I'm gonna try the orange blinking message from now on, looks cooler than mine.

And of course, 5 stars.
