Just for Fun: Book Trailer Intro

Oh, the things I learned today! This five second video is just what I was hoping for! I created it from ONE IMAGE and it added the voices too. Gotta love technology! (And no, I cannot make an Andi Carter movie out of a thousand 5-second videos, LOL)

    1. Well she gets married to Corey in the short story stranger in the Glade in the Andi Carter milestones books.

      Right now I only have a contract for books one and two. So who knows where this series will go it depends on how well it sells so tell everybody to buy it. LOL 🫣

      1. Oh! I don’t remember that! (I did read all the Andi milestone books just so you know, lol!)
        I’ll be sure to tell who I can! Maybe my mom can post about them in the homeschooling FB pages she’s in! 💕💕 I need to reread the Andi milestones. They’re awesome!

    1. I have a subscription to a very cool program called Let’s Enhance. It can take old photos and fix them, it can take blurry images and make them sharp, and there is a tab to change an image into an actual video. It goes by credits. I get 100 credits a month and it costs about $100/year. Once I use up my credits, I have to wait until the next month for them to reboot. You can take ANY IMAGE (like a photo of your family!) and change it into a 5-second video, and you can tell it what you want the video to do. I created the image of Jenny, Micah, and Gideon in front of the sawmill using ChatGPT (then I play with it in Photoshop if I need to for lighting, etc.) When I uploaded it to Let’s Enhance, I did not realize they had added the new audio portion. The last time I used it, it only changed images into videos. NOW it adds audio (and now it costs 20 credits instead of 10.) I told it what each character should say and let the enhancer do everything else.

      It took one minute for the video to be created! And I was amazed at how realistic the voices sounded. And I loved Jenny’s enthusiasm. I only told the prompt WHAT to say, not HOW to say it.

      Hope that helps.

      1. Yeah, that is so cool!!
        Micah says Gideons name while Gideon says it… haha

  1. I LOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVE it!!!!
    But one thing i noticed is that when Gideon is saying his name, Micah is also mouthing it.
