With mature deep fakes you could theoretically select your favorite actors for whatever you want to watch. This could be done at the studio level, hiring cheap actors for the manual work and then using deepfakes to replace with big name actors. It could be done after production by the consumer. Both methods could possibly be done legitimately although proper payment and credit for acting would be a nightmare.
I don't endorse the idea, but it with the correct implementation it could be a legitimate use.
- PoignardAzur 4y agoThere was recently a case of this in a recent video of Joueur du Grenier (a French video game Youtuber). They couldn't quite him on set on time for a particular scene, so at some point some guy on set said "Hey, this guy is roughly the same build as the JdG, why not have him put the costume for this scene and stand here, and deepfake the JdG's face later?". It's still a bit visible in the video though.
- laserbeam 4y agoProbably right. Can definitely save some production costs at times, even though you'd prefer the actor to be there. And I believe deep faking actor faces over stunt crew faces is a thing sometimes. You could still get a movie shipped without using the tech tho. Feels slightly gimmicky, but legitimate indeed. Cheers!
