She yearns to experience this as well but never seems to be the one the strange light chooses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Content &amp; Creation:<\/strong> This video was created using a mixture of AI generated images, and images of real cows found on Flickr. Surprisingly, there are not a lot of images to be found of cows truly being abducted by aliens (who would have thought!) so using AI to create these images for me was what helped me bring this story to life. Narration performed by me, using iPhone&#8217;s voice memo. Other audio used found on freesound.org. This video was edited using Adobe Premiere Pro. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><strong>Image Credits:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/sararasmussen\/13989876714\">cows at sunset<\/a>\u201d by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/sararasmussen\/\">Sara Rasmussen<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/2.0\/deed.en\">CC BY-NC-SA 2.0<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/lxhkrd\/50228484242\">Cows by night<\/a>\u201d by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/lxhkrd\/\">Alex Hoekerd<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/publicdomain\/zero\/1.0\/deed.en\">Public Domain Dedication (CC0)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/paldies\/5803675805\">Noctilucent clouds &amp; Cows<\/a>\u201d by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/paldies\/\">Helmuts R<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/deed.en\">CC BY-SA 2.0<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/musicaloris\/31459174548\">A nightly Visitor &#8211; Cow Stop-Motion<\/a>\u201d by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/musicaloris\/\">Hauke Musicaloris<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/deed.en\">CC BY 2.0<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/cocoleroc\/5801277912\">Cow<\/a>\u201d by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/cocoleroc\/\">cocoleroc<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/2.0\/deed.en\">CC BY-NC-SA 2.0<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/63394592@N08\/26590715720\">Cow Sunset<\/a>\u201d by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/63394592@N08\/\">Maurice<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc\/2.0\/deed.en\">CC BY-NC 2.0<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><strong>AI Generated Images<\/strong>, using <a href=\"https:\/\/openai.com\/policies\/row-terms-of-use\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">OpenAI<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u201cUFO Beams light on grazing cows\u201d AI image generated by prompt \u201creal cows in field at night with ufo in sky.
