Working with a skeleton crew, the Meni Military are vastly outnumbered as their enemy, the Trethorians, approach in their spaceships, the Meni’s only hope of living is to wait until they can fight the Trethorians hand to hand and see who the victor will be
A group of teens decide to go up to old man Kotter's haunted house near the old mill pond. After a scare, they run into the woods where, "no one who goes into the woods comes out alive." Can they make it through the woods and past the old mill pond and stay alive? Watch this scary AI generated video by Mari Bengston to see. Created by Mari Bengston, Dialogue and Voiceover by Mari Bengston, Directed by Mari Bengston, and Edited by Mari Bengston.
Voiceovers seem to be a problem for other Directors, but not for me. This is one of the voiceovers from "Trying to Reach 100," a screenplay about Son, a man from Los Angeles, who needs to drive his father, Pops, from Iowa to California to put him in a nursing home. Feeling guilty, he decides to take Pops down Route 66, never imagining the trouble they would get into. These images are generated through AI. Even though I'm not a man, I went ahead and voiced the voiceover. I couldn't get the AI generated voices to do what I wanted. Writer/Director/Producer/Voice Over Artist is Mari Bengston on this short film.
