A few days ago as I was scrolling through YouTube I came across a video built around storytelling. It was so beautifully done even though the creator used AI. It's not about the use of AI, its about the story.
Episode 1 kept my interest and had me so invested in the story that I went and sought out his page where I found Episode 2.
Episode 1 is a story of the gods in Ancient Kemet, ie Akebulan (Egypt), and the betrayal of one amongst them.
The author is, "not a scholar or a writer." The creator just wanted to create something "beautiful for the people." The creator did just that. I'm waiting on Episode 3. The YouTube channel is Junior Movies Entertainment.
Episode 2 Forbidden Origins
Another movie that I discovered in 2008 was Kirikou and the Sorceress. Based on a West African fable, this animated movie is beautifully done. It moves a little slow, but stay with it. It's a movie with a message. It takes place in an African village. Kirikou is born walking and talking. His character is tenacious.
He sets off to face the Sorceress who has kidnapped the men, terrorized the people, and dried up the spring.
The message in the movie is there if you pay attention. This is one of my favorites.
Black Sands Entertainment
Episode 1 is an animated series introducing Ausar. Black Sands Entertainment was founded by husband and wife Manuel Godoy and Geiszel Godoy. The Co-founder is Teunis De Raat. They were featured on Shark Tank where their company was invested into by Mark Cuban and Kevin Hart. They then took their company to Instagram where they offered the community a stake as investors into the company. They have around 6, 000 community investors.
Which shows, when you bring intelligent art to the people with story lines that speak to our story and us as a people, we will support it. But it has to be done right or not at all.
