Controversial or awesome???

I’m sharing this video (an hommage to my beloved Wedgeport) because the soundtrack was created entirely by AI. I know, I know—AI is the "hot potato" of the internet right now and everyone has an opinion on it. But controversial or not, I had to show you what these digital brains are capable of these days.

Honestly, I’m impressed with the professional quality and ease for creating such a track - more importantly...the low cost! While not everyone would endorse AI music, I think it's the future for small video producers (and many others) who cannot afford to pay tens of thousands of dollars for rights to use a specific song within their productions.

While the music is AI, all images/videos were captured by me within the last year or so.

What are your thoughts?

Step back in time to 1947!!!

Here's another gem I recently discovered while digitizing old VHS tapes. A big thank you to the Cottreau family (Marie à Jerry) for giving me permission to share. I added period music via Pixaby.com.

Please comment if you recognize any of the people or the scenes.

Enjoy!

After receiving a few requests for more of the interview, here's the unedited raw footage of the entire interview with Genesta. Nothing fancy - main camera and no English captions.

I had a blast during Tuna Tournament Week (Aug17-23) in my native Wedgeport. I volunteered to produce online content for the tournament including video production, photography and Facebook posts. I learned that it takes a village of nearly 200 volunteers to make this festival successful. We had another great week with awesome attendance to all the events!

I created a highlight reel of the week's events as my thanks to all the tireless volunteers. Enjoy!
