This is an FPV drone flight through a city during a solar eclipse.
The camera moves from a crowded square to a football stadium without any cuts or transitions. I wanted to show how people react when something unusual happens, and routine becomes ritual
As the eclipse shadow advances, people who don't know each other start moving in sync — looking up at the same time, adjusting their position together, reacting as one group. The drone follows this rhythm from quiet individual moments in the city to a massive collective gasp in the stadium
The crowd sync at the eclipse moment is the part that gets me, that's such a hard beat to land in one continuous take. How many passes did it take to get that timing right, or did Seedance basically nail it early?

I built a TikTok machine before I ever opened TikTok
Confession: I've never posted a TikTok, and I've barely watched one (I'm a Youtube Shorts addict though 😂).
So naturally, I built a machine that makes them.
It's for thegoatdebate.io, my Messi vs Ronaldo GOAT debate site. The star is Papa Goat, a grumpy, deeply unimpressed goat who has heard your GOAT take before and didn't like it then either. 🐐
How it works: you give it some football footage. It picks a take from a bank of about 150 sourced facts, and a local AI model writes Papa Goat's script. ElevenLabs gives him a voice, and a talking goat lands on top of the video. Out comes a vertical video that a human (me) watches before anything gets posted.
