This was written, demonstrated, and spoken by a human. :)

AI was not used to produce this video, except to generate captions, which were then reviewed and corrected as necessary.

Blender

Blender is free and open-source software which can be used for editing videos. It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. No registration or subscription is required.

This video was produced using Blender 5.0.1, running on Ubuntu 24.04.

Notes

Blender sometimes crashes or hangs, particularly when working with text strips in this particular version. I strongly suggest you save your Blender file early and save often.
