Field notes
The implementation table maps author choices to player behavior: scene headings are announced when scenes change, and focus moves to a visible heading if the focused button disappears. The page also supplies a fallback image and description for older browsers or visitors with JavaScript turned off. Its example movie’s notebook marks count day, launch day, and flood day, when the ants form a floating raft.
