Abraham-Louis Breguet (AI generated parody)

September 30, 2024. The narrative presented here is a parody. It's based it on what I've read about Abraham-Louis Breguet. He was a super interesting figure and well worth reading about.

If you're interested in how text-to video works below are samples of a few of the text prompts that I used to generate this film:

The young 10 year old Abraham-Louis Breguet crying at his father's funeral in a beautiful graveyard on the shore of lake Neuchâtel in Neuchâtel, Switzerland in the 1750s. He is sitting with his mother and uncle watching his father's casket as it is lowered into a grave. A group of older working class peasant boys watch from the distance and behind them across the lake are the snow capped Swiss Alps just visible above the horizon.

A man and a woman dance together on the outdoor terrace of a fine restaurant on the shore of Lake Neuchâtel in the year 1765 at magic hour with the Swiss Alps rising above the lake.

A mother, father, and a twelve year boy and a ten year old girl enjoy a picnic high in the Swiss Alps in the 1750s as Swiss milk cows graze behind them. The camera starts close on the family and pulls back to reveal the beauty of the Alps.

The watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet in watchmaker's workshop in Paris in the 1700s attacks a group of students with an axe and chops them to pieces.

The young twenty year old watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet arrives by horseback at his uncle's watchmaker's workshop in Paris in the 1700s with a rucksack full of watchmaking tools and a large clock strapped to his back.

King Louis the Sixteenth of France accepts the gift of a golden pocket watch from a majestic forty year old watchmaker dressed in black in the Palace of Versailles in the 1700s surrounded by baby elephants.

The Place de la Concorde in Paris in January 1793. A crowd of drunken and soiled revolutionary peasants with pitchforks and firing their muskets into the air surround a large wooden tower in the middle of which the beautiful Marie Antoinette is lying in a large upright wooden frame under a large angled blade suspended by rope and held by a weight at the top. The position of her neck is directly below that large blade. The blade is released and drops. Her head is severed from her body and falls into a box several feet below. The camera starts with a very wide shot and moves to a close-up of the queen's head falling into the box. She holds a gold pocket watch in her hand. The camera starts out wide and ends on a close-up of the pocket watch on the ground beside her head. The pocket watch has the name "Breguet" printed on the dial. A baby monkey grabs the pocket watch and runs into the crowd.

A horse and carriage races through the main street of a small village in France towards England in a violet lighting storm. It is night time and the skies are purple. It is the late 1700s in France. Dozens of filthy drunken local peasants and scantily clad women drink from large bottles of wine as the carriage passes.

The majestic seventy year old watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet dressed in a purple waist coat and black pants arrives by horse drawn carriage with two female assistants at Windsor Windsor Castle in England in the early 1800s.

King George III of England clumsily rides a Victorian bicycle with a large front wheel and tiny rear wheel outside of Windsor Castle in the year 1815 holding a silver Breguet pocket watch in one hand dressed in soiled clothes with a long flowing beard. Beside him a maiden in revealing lingerie leads a tiger on a leash.

The eighty year old watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet runs into the overweight bombastic YouTuber Nico Leonard in the Gare du Nord in Paris in the year 1800. Nico Leonard is wearing a Manchester United football jersey and blue stripped white Adidas sweat pants and shows Mr. Breguet his Richard Mille RM 05 wristwatch.
