National Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Day by Jenny Cheerful

Tue, 9 Jun 2026 17:16:19 -0400

Do you know what day it is? It's National Strawberry Rhubarb Pie day (June 9). By far my sister's favorite reason to celebrate on June 9th. As far as I can remember she made this delish dish every year. Now, Jenny spills the recipe. Take a look.

Jenny is an AI avatar that can be re-used. Since she was created from an image and then animated she can called a "consistent character." In this video she tells us about National Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Day.

So, I made this delish dish because my it reminds me of my sister Ann. Ann was a gourmet cook (self taught) and loved rhubarb and strawberries. She made this pie at least once a year. Ann even grew her own rhubarb.

When I saw this reason to celebrate I took it. Sadly, I am not a gourmet cook. Still it was delicious, and tangy and sweet. Yummy!

Well, now you know BWT Videos is an AI avatar creator. Do you have an avatar idea in mind? Say, a selfie type avatar. Take a picture of yourself and turn it into an avatar. However, I will not do celebrities, political figures or any well known people. Not my rule, my supplier's rule. BWT Videos is your avatar creator for video presenters. Order yours today...

Fri, 5 Jun 2026 09:24:07 -0400

Aaron Logo is an animated avatar created with AI. He features a light blue suit with a white shirt with a mustache and gotee. But that can change, this video spokesperson has many changeable assets. Color for all clothing, hair and accessories can by modified. The logo can by changed and is embedded into the clipboard.

Aaron is part of BWT Videos collection of video spokesperson presenters. Our avatars are multi-lingual, multi-national and polyglotish. That means they speak and understand many languages. They can read and translate into about 60 different dialects and accents. Pretty cool! Eh?

Animated avatars are a great low cost way to promote your brand, business, product or service. They can be lip-synced with a voice over or narrate from a written script.

Avatars, Includes And Modal Madness

Thu, 4 Jun 2026 10:58:10 -0400

Mired in code this past May. Took several days and many tries to come up with this line of code """edit-video-box2.shtml""" It is a server side include call for a bigger chunk of code. A whopping big chunk.

Include files can be thought of as subroutines. Instead of writing lengthy code snippets everytime, you write a subroutine call that loads up a bigger code file when called upon. This trick makes the code portable from page to page. Great idea, Tim! What are you talking about? This, check it out...

***edit-video-box2.shtml***

This is the server side include I made to display this interactive buy now box I made for my video editing business. The box features 4 levels of video editing options, Basic, Standard, Premium and Custom. Standard, Premium and Custom packages include avatar generation which can be selected. I needed a way to show the avatar presenters without cluttering up the space.

I admit I turned to Microsoft Copilot chatbot to help write the code. Good thing too 'cause I made several debugging mistakes. So did Copilot for that matter. In the end I now have a way for you to order a video editing project that is not controlled by an off-website entity like fiverr, Upwork or Thumbtack.

The Standard package offers only animated and human like avatars from our libray (about 100 to choose from). The Premium and Custom packages include AI generated avatars from a prompt or image.

SBI or Solo Build It is the web hosting platform I use that utilizes SSI (sever side include) files. Simply upload your own HTML and SSI files once. And next time I want to re-use the SSI all I have to do is put the SSI call (or a super short snippet). Learn more...

Why Optimizing Your Webpages For SEO And AEO Matters

Mon, 11 May 2026 08:23:40 -0400

If you are a webmaster in today's world you have already discovered that AI powered Answer Engines are fast becoming the search results engine of the Internet. Traditional SEO is only half the game now. AI powered answer engines like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini and Perplexity (even Groc) are where people are going for answers these days.

Recently I rebuilt my video-editing.html page with SEO (search engine optimization) and AEO (answer engine optimization) framework. The tramsformation was dramatic - I added a lot of missing content, organized it for quick AE access and polished it with new FAQ section and new answer engine friendly structure.

Here's How To Update Your Page For AEO

Start you rebuild with a complete AEO analysis of the page including:

Page structure
Content depth
Schema markup
Multimedia usage
Internal linking
Entity clarity
AEO readiness

Add a clear, consise Entity Summary section helps AI systems understand "who you are." This is important because they need to know you before they can recommend your services. In short I added sections for:

Who I am? Tim Koen
What I do? Edit video
Where are you located? Michigan
What tools do you use? DaVinci Resolve, Camtasia
What services do you offer? Editing, Color Grading
How much does it cost? By project
Whom I serve? Small businesses

This is a major win for the page's AEO. It tells the answer engines in short descriptions information it can extricate quickly, and is precisely what they are looking for. In other words a structured itemlist is ideal for question and answer communications.

Next add a Tools & software section. This tells the answer engines what tools I use.

DaVinci Resolve 21
Camtasia 2026
AI audio tools
SnagIt graphics editor
AI spokesperson generators
Screen recording tools
AI animation tools

Then add a Frequently Asked Questions section (FAQ). AE engines just love FAQs because they are exactly the type of information people look for. My FAQ answers these particular questions:

What types of video I can edit?
Editing tools and workflow?
Pricing and delivery timing?
What software do I use?
AI spokesperson generation?
How to get started?
What I need from you?

Each FAQ answer is written in short, descriptive and authoritative sentences, that are conversational and answer engine friendly.

Then create a full json-ld schema markup code and added it to the HTML upload. I added a complete multi-entity schema block including:

Service
Organization
Person
VideoObject
OfferCatalog
FAQPage
BreadcrumbList

This is a major win for the page's SEO & AEO. It connects my person to services and services to organization. Which helps AI understand my offerings, structures the page properly and strengthens my E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness and Trust).

These are major AEO updates, but I also did some SEO, as well. That included improving page structure, add internal linking, and publishing more multi-media. The benefits of doing this should make the page more user and AE friendly as well as:

Easier to understand
More authoritative
More user-friendly
Future proof
OfferCatalog
FAQPage
More likely to appear in Answer Engines as well as Search engines

Yes, I used AI chatbot (Microsoft Copilot) to help write this blog post, in case you were wondering. No,I did not copy and paste or plagerize the words. I took the time to type it out in my own words and in my own style.

You may have noticed a propensity of lists on this page. It is not a design error, I did it on purpose, because answer engines love lists. They make the information extractable in a structured organized way it can relate too. Lists can also be used to generate schema markup. Which I am going to do for this page next. Meanwhile visit my page to see the results...

DaVinci Resolve 21b New Photo Page Tips

Sat, 25 Apr 2026 09:10:00 -0400

DaVinci Resolve 21b brings a new page to the package called "Photo." On the photo page. This new page directly addresses photo editing and retouching. It is a first release and is in beta so there may be bugs and room for improvement. I tried it out and came up with this video...

DIA Statues Photo Album

Website tips for this post:

Traditional photo editing can be a lot of work. Typically you could change duration, apply text, color correct, resize, add transitions and animate each one individually. The "Photo" page ties all these operations into DR21b on one neat page. It is like a combination of a cinematic editor and a photo album creator.

Photos can be accessed across 4 pages. Photo, Color, Fusion and Deliver. Which allows you the full range of capabilities including adding text, motion, effects and optimizing color and white balance. Especially usefull when matching still photos with video footage.

Exporting on the Deliver page has a photo album option under custom export. Where you can export the entire album or selected images. Which includes all the changes you made to your images.

All the changes you make to your images are applied to the Media Pool. Attributes remain the same over various timelines. This means that whatever changes you did on the photo page will be the same everywhere you use them.

Adding effects are a simple drag and drop on your image. For instance did you see the Sun poking through on the first image. I added that with the "Lens Flare" effect, to achieve that look. The list of effects available are too numerous to list here. but rest assured the list is lengthy.

While the Photo page is a huge welcome addition to DaVinci Resolve it is going to be somewhat limited due to the fact it is a free upgrade. BMD could have charged a subscription fee but decided not to. So, you can rule out any heavy AI manipulation as being cost prohibitive.

Also, the concept is to edit photos in a video editing environment. Not create fantasitc full length photo animations. Although you could do that, you would need to have a lot of power and memory on your computer as cloud based AI generation is not going to happen.

Camtasia 2026 Certification With Audiate

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 09:28:43 -0400

Camtasia 2026 Certification released early 2026 has jumped to a new level with more refined AI tools. Chief among these is Audiate. As the most significant upgrade is audio based. Which makes sense considering visual editing revolves around the sound more than the other way around.

With Audiate you have a wide range of AI tools to work with. Including AI speech to text conversion with textual editing capabilities and AI voice and character generation. That means you can input a written script and output an AI generated avatar spokesperson tutorial with narration, if you were so inclined.

Speed Up Editing with Camtasia Audiatel

Or, you can edit an existing narration lickity split with slick voice analizer tools. Create polished tutorials that sync audio narration with AI generated avatars. Eliminate or silence uhs, ums, ahs and pauses.

Sounds simple, right? Well it isn't, I recommend taking the Camtasia Certification course first. It ain't as easy as it looks. This comprehensive course walks you step by step through how to use Camtasia 2026 effectively. I took the course and came up with this video I call Camtasia Menagerie. Check it out...

Camtasia Certification Course includes 11 learning modules with quizzes and source materials. You get a journey from beginning a project to recording your camera and screen to editing, exporting and publishing a polished masterpiece. When finished you get a Certificate of Completion like this one.

This Camtasia Certification course covers most but not every aspect of recording and editing a screencast video. It is broken down into specific areas of study including screen recording, video editing, audio editing, visual effects, captioning, animation, asset management and publishing. The curricullum is organized to walk you through creation of a video from intro to final delivery.

Website tips for this post are:

As mentioned earlier Audiate is an AI based editing tool that is separate from Camtasia. You have to get a subscription for each year you wish to use it. There are different levels you can pay for.

The basic level has some features and succeeding levels have greater capabilities. The top or Pro level includes text-to-speech voice narration, AI generated lip synced avatars and script generation.

The only downside to Audiate is the recurring subscription fees. There are similar 3rd party products on the market that are less expensive and one time only charge. But are not integrated into Camtasia.

If you have a Camtasia subscription that is "Business" level or higher you can download Audiate for free and take advantage of some of the script editing functions. But not the AI character or script generation tools.

Once again Camtasia tops out the class of screen recording video editors. Excellent for making tutorials and general video editing. Some may argue that Camtasia is Not a high end editor (compared to others). Camtasia is actually a complex NLE (non-liear editor) with track stacking timeline editing construction.

Camtasia actually is very well equipped for advanced animation, motion graphics and audio sweetening. Learn how to use Camtasia to make screen recording tutorials on the next page...
