Some Videos

Hi, Everyone,

I know I normally post my travel-blog on Thursday, but I’ve had a bit of a mess-up with my scheduling. Nothing serious. Just needs a bit of fine tuning.

So, instead, I thought I’d share a few of the videos I’ve been making recently with AI video. My usual process is take one of the photos I’ve snapped and then try to add motion.

So, first, here we have me feeding a large metal armadillo. Well, actually, it’s a sculpture of an armadillo in Waco, Texas. I thought it would be fun to pretend it was alive. (This is OpenArt.AI)

Second, on our recent trip back from Winfield, Kansas, with Judy, we stopped for lunch at a very cool restaurant, the Twisted Root Burger Company. (If you’re in Waco, give it a shot.) It had very cool and very funky murals on the wall outside. I tried to make the attacking alien war machines move. It sorta worked. (This is RunwayML. Honestly, I’m having some trouble with RunwayML. It seems not to want to do what I ask it to do. Maybe I need a bit more training.)

Finally, here is Martha standing in front of a fun little restaurant we stopped at on the way to Winfield, the Prairie Kitchen, in ardmore, OK. However, I have made it look as thought a storm is rolling in. I love the way the clouds zip past behind her. (This, again, is OpenArt.AI.)

So, there you have it. Hope you enjoy these.

cheers

Care to help out?

I provide these blog postings for free. That’s fine and I’m happy to do so. But, long ago and far away, I was told that if you give away your material, that means you don’t really think it has any value.

So, to get beyond that, I’ve decided to make it possible for you to leave me a “tip” for my posts.

If you like what I write or the videos I produce, and feel you could make a small contribution to support my efforts, please go here:

https://michaeljaytucker.gumroad.com/l/lzumj

That will take you to a Gumroad page where you’ll have the option of leaving me a few pence by way of encouragement.

Again, I don’t mind if you don’t. I just want to provide you with the option so that I won’t feel quite so much like I’m just tossing my works into the wind.

Either way, thanks hugely for dropping by the blog :-)
