In 1999, Fard Muhammad created a small computer-generated movie to commemorate the 5th anniversary of the Atari Jaguar. That video was one of the presentations in the Classic Gaming Expo of that year in Las Vegas. Later on, Fard was interviewed on a local Chicago news show called "FOX Thing in the Morning" in a light-hearted segment called "Extremely Local News". However, the interview's focus was mainly on the idea that Muhammad shortened his movie from eight minutes to three minutes (the missing five minutes were a group of live action shots that were later deemed unnecessary for the story). The interview was introduced by hosts Bob Sirott and Marianne Murciano, and the interview was conducted by sportscaster Bruce Wolf. Copyright 1999 Fox Television Stations, Inc. and WFLD-TV Chicago.
