  • Ethical AI? New Video Generation Tool Is Trained on Licensed Data

    Ethical AI? New Video Generation Tool Is Trained on Licensed Data

    [ad_1]

    An underwater video generated by the AI model Marey

     

    As photographers and filmmakers, many of us are observing the rapid emergence of generative AI tools with a mixture of skepticism and trepidation. We’re doubtful that AI can replace us—especially as we’re working in the underwater realm—but we’re alarmed at the idea that our content is being “scraped” and at some point, AI software will indeed be able to generate the images and video we work so hard to capture. Which makes the arrival of Moonvalley’s AI model Marey both encouraging and scary—not least because the company shows off impressive underwater images and video generated by the model.

    While AI company Midjourney is being sued by Disney and Universal for copyright infringement, Moonvalley—which was founded by DeepMind researchers and has close associations with the film industry—is developing Marey by training it on licensed data and with the consent of filmmakers. This should mean filmmakers and studios can avoid the ethical quagmire and copyright lawsuits that have become all too common in the nascent AI industry. Naeem Talukdar, Moonvalley’s CEO and co-founder, tells TIME: “We have to make sure that we’re building these tools the right way: building with the filmmaker and the artist at the center of it, rather than trying to automate their job away.”

     

    An underwater image generated by the AI model Marey

     

    Aimed at pro filmmakers, Marey offers functionality that many other AI-powered video generation tools lack. Most AI video models are black-box systems: They generate a scene from your text prompt, and if you try to modify one aspect, others may change, making it difficult or impossible to achieve the result you want. Marey aims to offer filmmakers precise control over every detail. You can input storyboards or frames and then tweak the results to taste. You can create cinematic camera moves using just a single image by turning a 2D scene into a 3D environment. You can draw a trajectory for an element and watch your direction come to life. You can even pull motion from a reference video and apply it to new subjects or scenes.

    “It’s this iterative process where you start with some input guidance and then you build up towards the scene that you want, which really isn’t very different from how VFX workflows are today,” Talukdar tells TIME. “If you’re an independent studio that doesn’t necessarily have massive infrastructure, you can now, even in a small space, create and curate these scenes in a very granular way.”

    Moonvalley claims that Marey is trained entirely on footage licensed from intellectual property owners. According to Talukdar, around 80% of that footage is B-roll created by independent filmmakers and agencies, and this means the model is trained on about one-fifth of the data used by competitors like Google’s Veo 3. Talukdar says Marey would definitely be more powerful if they scraped data, but he claims they are overcoming this with better technology. “Our inclination is that you don’t necessarily have to be the number one model—you just need to be among the best,” he says.

    Marey is now available to filmmakers for subscription tiers of $15, $35, and $150 a month.

  • Synology Announces DiskStation DS1825+ and DS725+ NAS Systems

    Synology Announces DiskStation DS1825+ and DS725+ NAS Systems

    [ad_1]

    Synology has unveiled two additions to its DiskStation lineup—the DS725+ and DS1825+—which offer two and eight drive bays, respectively. The new 25 Plus series models offer 2.5GbE networking, support SATA SSDs and HDDs (both 2.5″ and 3.5″), and feature M.2 NVMe slots for use as cache.

    Like the DS925+ and DS1525+, the new models can be upgraded with the company’s DX525 expansion unit. You can add a single expansion unit to the DS725+ or two expansion units to the DS1825+. Calculated using 20TB drives, you get up to 40TB of storage with the DS725+ or 140TB with added expansion; and up to 160TB with the DS1825+ or an impressive 360TB with the added expansion. That’s a serious number of photos and videos!

    One caveat to consider when investing in these new 25 Plus series models is that Synology says complete functionality will only be available with Synology-branded drives—a proviso that the company says ensures the most reliable performance. This isn’t a huge deal if you’re using HDD drives, since Synology’s drives are competitively priced, but if you want to go the solid-state route, Synology SDDs are rather expensive compared to those of its competitors. (Non-certified drives can technically be used in the new NAS systems, but users that choose to do so will lose certain software- and firmware-related functionality.)

    The Synology DS725+ and DS1825+ will retail for $520 and $1,150, respectively—yes, that’s without any storage drives!

     

    Synology’s DiskStation 25-series includes the DS425+, DS725+, DS925+, DS1825+, and DS1525+

  • Making a Career in Underwater Photography, with Mekan

    Making a Career in Underwater Photography, with Mekan

    [ad_1]


    A couple of years ago, a trio of incredible—and incredibly heart-wrenching—photos took first place in the environmental category, “No Time to Waste,” of the UN World Oceans Day Photo Competition, hosted by DPG. Those images of an entangled humpback remain, in my view, among the most arresting underwater photos demonstrating the terrible cost of humanity’s impact on the oceans. I hoped that one day I’d be able to meet the photographer, Álvaro Herrero, aka Mekan, and congratulate him on those striking pictures—and on contributing so powerfully to the conversation about marine protection.

    As it turned out, when I finally had the pleasure of meeting Mekan at ADEX earlier this year, I was congratulating him on another amazing achievement: being crowned Underwater Photographer of the Year 2025—this time with a heart-warming shot of a healthy humpback mom and her calf. Mekan isn’t just a lovely guy, modest about his accomplishments; he’s also incredibly passionate and ready to share with anyone who shares his passion. No wonder, then, that this talented Spaniard is the perfect person to be joining Nicolas Remy in the next Underwater Club Masterclass event to talk about “Making a Career in Underwater Photography.”

    This promises to be another unmissable two-hour webinar. As well as chatting about some of his most spectacular underwater images, Mekan will be sharing how he has managed to turn his passion into a full-time job. In particular, he’ll be discussing the income streams that make that possible, including leading trips, teaching photo courses, selling prints, and doing photo shoots for clients. Appropriately, Mekan will also cover how to make the most of wins in photo competitions and using social media to support your work. As usual, during the live Q&A portion, participants will get the chance to ask questions. It’s sure to be an extremely inspiring session.

    As always, TUC members join for free, while non-members will need to purchase tickets to the event at AU$49 (approx. US$35). Note that this is also the price of monthly membership, so this is the perfect opportunity to join the club and take advantage of all of the membership benefits.

    Here are the event times:

    • July 20th, 4pm Los Angeles time (PDT)
    • July 20th, 6pm Dallas time (CDT)
    • July 20th, 7pm Miami time (EDT)

  • AOI Launches UCS-Q1i Strobe

    AOI Launches UCS-Q1i Strobe

    [ad_1]

    AOI has released a new addition to its Q1-series of Ultra Compact Strobes, which includes the UCS-Q1 and UCS-Q1 RC. The UCS-Q1i was unveiled at the recent Malaysia International Dive Exhibition (MIDE) in Kuala Lumpur. According to the press release (see below), the new fiber-optically triggered strobe “combines the best features from the UCS-Q1 and UIS-P1”—though the UCS-Q1i features a straight flash tube as opposed to the circular flash tube of the UIS-P1.

    Depth-rated to 60 meters (200 feet), the UCS-Q1i boasts a guide number (GN) of 22, a color temperature of 5600K, and an 85° beam angle with diffusor attached. AOI claims a recycle time of just 0.85s after a full power dump and 1,500 flashes at full power. The strobe features the same built-in 700-lumen continuous light found on the UCS-Q1 and UCS-Q1 RC, and also runs on a pair of 18650 Li-ion rechargeable batteries (3,100mAh).

    Like the UIS-P1, the new strobe features InTeLi mode, which is designed to ensure that TTL exposure is “accurate and consistent” across different camera systems. The mode encompasses support for Sony TTL and i-Macro, OM System/Olympus RC TTL and i-Macro, and TTL HSS and M-HSS. In manual mode, output can be adjusted in six increments, from full power to 1/64 power.

    Priced at $500, the AOI Q1i strobe is available now—in black or white finish—from retailers such as Backscatter.

The UCS-Q1RC introduced TTL integration for OM System cameras, creating a seamless experience in both performance and design. AOI Ltd further solidified its reputation for pioneering technology with the UIS-P1, which introduced AOl In TeLi™ Mode, a next-generation system optimized specifically for underwater photography.

     


    Now, with the debut of the UCS-Q1i, AOI Ltd combines the best features from the UCS-Q1 and UIS-P1. The UCS-Q1i inherits AOl In TeLi™ Mode, ensuring accurate and consistent TTL exposure across multiple camera systems, surpassing traditional S-TTL or TTL capabilities. This advanced mode intelligently adapts to camera settings, delivering enhanced precision in exposure control.

    Additionally, AOl In TeLi™ Mode includes i-Macro Mode, refining macro flash photography by optimizing light output for close-up shooting. Underwater photographers can capture fine details with stunning clarity, ensuring beautifully lit macro shots. With support for Sony TTL and i-Macro, OM System RC TTL and i-Macro, and TTL HSS and M-HSS Mode, AOl InTeLi™ Mode sets a new benchmark in underwater strobe technology.

     





    Most importantly, the UCS-Q11 remains the brightest strobe in its segment with an impressive Guide Number 22 (GN22) at ISO100, delivering powerful illumination underwater. Like the UIS-P1, the UCS-Q1i supports High Speed Shutter (HSS) compatibility with Sony cameras, allowing photographers to freeze fast-moving underwater scenes with precision and clarity.

    “MIDE 2025 is the perfect platform to introduce the UCS-Q1i to the world,” said Victor Tsui, Managing Director of AOI Ltd. “With AOl InTeLiT Mode, we’re bringing a smarter, more refined approach to TTL exposure and macro photography, ensuring underwater photographers get consistent, high-quality results every time.”
