My Film Journey - Past, Present and Future

Some of the movies that I have acted in have done famously in the theatres and are now screened on Netflix.

While others are less successful in their distribution routes.

Yet others only need Deep Fake inserts to look like I have acted in them. This one is from Spiderman. It couldn't quite fit my face into the Caucasian face structure. Not so convincing.

This one is better and even synchronised the lip movements quite convincingly.

This one fits my face more seamlessly because I cleaned up extraneous facial lines in my input image. It seems that the app is not capable of rendering shadows cast by facial features.

This one is very well done, as it morphed my face very well into both the characters and also lip-synced the dialogue neatly.

Makes me wonder what the future of cinema and films will be with this rapid advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology. 

Will actors be still needed the way they are now?

I have also posted about the future of TV and Films in this blog in the past, if you are curisous, click here.
