Mama and the Bear is an experimental music project, pairing my own lyrics, humor, heart and video editing skills with AI-generated music and images. I took one poem I wrote about my family’s pet fish, and turned it into a great country song with Eleven Labs, then I created hundreds of images in Midjourney until I perfected the country singer the fish, and the location, then I animated the clips with Hailuo AI, Kling AI, and Runway ML, edited in capcut, and polished by adding lip sync in Dreamface.

This video proves we can use AI to help bring our creations to life, without sacrificing our work’s emotion, humor or heart.
