Behind the Scenes of "Ducks Quacking, Eating, and Splashing on the River"
Recorded in Besalú (Girona, Spain), I've already made a Behind the Scenes for a failed attempt at a second video where some pretty annoying tourists showed up, forcing us to cancel the shoot.
This Behind the Scenes, however, is for the video that was successfully recorded and published. In this video, you can see my wife tossing pieces of bread into the water for the ducks, who all quickly rush over to eat them.
We bought a total of 5 loaves of bread and spent an hour tossing them bits. At first, a bunch came over and even fought over the bread. By the end of the video, we had thrown so much bread that most of them lost interest; they were completely satiated 🤣.
You can verify that it's the same location, same angle, same time, same clouds—everything matches the published video.
I'm making this to establish my ownership of the video, which was recorded by me and my wife, and is exclusively for use by Acerting Art.
I'm mentioning this because YouTube has demonetized my channel. When I appealed the decision, they rejected it, saying they had no way of knowing if I was the actual owner of the videos since I don't appear in them.
Even if I'm not in some of the videos, I have footage before or after the main content, like in this case where you see my wife and the filming location along with the ducks we're feeding.
I hope this will be enough proof, along with the dozens of other videos I'm posting that feature exclusive content, or where I appear in the video to demonstrate that Acerting Art videos are my own.
If YouTube finds this sufficient, I hope they will then re-monetize my channel. And if they ever have any doubts, they can let me know. I can provide further evidence, give them access to my NAS where I store the original files, or anything else they may need.
