@Mike Bayer Yes, I do use about 5% AI. I buy the rest of the shots from people who sell them because I can't afford to get out there and make those shots myself. Actually, it's too expensive and too hard. I have two drones and a DJI. I have two DJI still cameras as well. They make good videos. I've got the wireless mics as well to do interviews and stuff like that, but that's also hard to get out there when you're over 80. I do a lot of that kind of work. I mainly use DaVinci Resolve and CapCut for editing, and I do write and use free music... Unlike you, I'm not monetized, and this is all paid for out of my pocket. I did try what you suggested in one of your videos. This is what I put on my channel: Buy me a cup of coffee. You know how many cups of coffee I've got so far? None, anyway. I thought I'd try it and see if it worked. Actually, here's the truth: I started my channel at 79 after watching one of your videos. I said I can do this. I did have prior video-making experience, editing, and particularly sound work with my uncle and his sound studio in Los Angeles when I was still in junior high. He had some pretty good contracts with Disney Corporation, and we recorded a group called Lawrence Welk. I'm sure many of the young kids never heard of him, but I got to sit in and tweak some of the audio levels. It was a lot of fun. As for my videos, I'm trying; that's all I can do. I just haven't found the right nich yet I think. Have a super day, Mike? Good to hear from you, keep on Surfing🏄

@Mike Bayer Well you did Mike And I really appreciate it thank you so much it sure gives me a lot to do that's for sure I just can't seem to get any traction with subscribers but I guess that's the way it goes I just don't know what they want to see and I'm not a kind of person that should really be doing a live podcast although I've thought about it anyway thank you so much you have a great day and keep on surfing🏄

@Alexa Saarenoja, Wow, you take it easy? You've been working too hard. I'll keep you in my prayers. Have a Super Day.🏄

Sounds really great looking forward to it you have a great day and keep on surfing🏄

@Jaye Brunner Yes, it's true; it just takes a lot of practice. You know you can tell a friend something straight on, but when you put it in a video, you gotta tweak it around and make it sound exciting. That's part of good storytelling, you'll get there🏄

Thank you you have a super productive day🏄

@Jean Gregory Wright You have a great day gene enjoy this video I just put up I think it's a real winter i'm hoping give me your thoughts. https://youtu.be/R1GhNFXgPjM

@Jean Gregory Wright I have two DJI drones, and I shoot a lot of B-roll footage so I can use it. You have a Super Day, talk to you later🏄
