Google NotebookLM Slide Deck Narrated Video for Robert and Elizabeth (Ballard) Seaver

 I posted Turning the Google NotebookLM Slide Show Into a Narrated Video earlier this week, with my process to create the slide deck into a Google Vids video that could be put on my YouTube channel and on my ABC Biographies of my ancestors.

Unfortunately, Google removed the Infographics and Slide Deck features from the FREE users of NotebookLM. If it comes back soon, I will continue to use it for free. Iif it doesn't return soon, I will pay the monthly fee to access it for some time period (reportedly about $20 per month) because I like those features.  

In the meantime, I have five Slide Decks on hand, so I will create and post the Narrated Videos one at a time. 

The ABC Biography for Robert and Elizabeth (Ballard) Seaver (based on my genealogical research) is in ABC Biography of Robert Seaver (1608-1683) and Elizabeth (Ballard) Seaver (1616-1657) of Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Here is the Slide Deck made into a narrated video using Google Vids (with extra slides before and after the Slide Deck slides) for the Robert and Elizabeth (Ballard) Seaver biography: 


I really like how this worked out.  

I need to add the Infographic (when I can make one) and this slide presentation to the ABC Biography later on.  I will add the Slide Deck Video to my YouTube Channel (https://www.youtube.com/@RandySeaver) as I create them.

I have three more slide deck narrated videos to do and will post them as I do them. And then the challenge is to do many more since I like them so much!

I hope that the Video Overview, the Infographic and the Slide Deck Narrated Videos for my ancestors will interest my brothers, children, grandchildren and cousins. Heretofore, they haven't been interested in my blog posts, whether genealogical sketches, family stories, or ABC biographies.
