There was a lot of discussion and controversy about the de-aging techniques used in Martin Scorsese's The Irishman. Industrial Light & Magic were the VFX studio who took on the huge technical challenge. You can take a deeper look at how they achieved their de-aged results here: • How The Irishman’s Gro...
We created a data set containing 10,000 images of Robert Deniros face sourced from some of his early movies including Casino, Good Fellas, A Bronx Tale and many more.
Using this data set, we can use the power of deep fake technology to accurately transfer the "look" of a young Deniro onto the de-aged face in The Irishman. This process took about 10 days.

@bigred22685 4 года назад

Well the blue eyes were originally done to match Sheeran in real life, albeit they were done distractingly poorly. I wish DeNiro just wore color contacts in the film. The deepfake uses images of DeNiro's true eyes so it looks so much more natural.

It’s obvious it looks better, to be fair you had a good starting point, since ILM deagening involved making cgi necks and helped makeups hairline. But it definitely makes you realize that an extra deepfake pass was needed. Amazing, amazing job!!

@sebastianschmidt3869 4 года назад

@matiful23 4 года назад

In most interviews with ILM they note how Scorsese didn't want DeNiro and Pesci to look exactly as they were at the time, but more like they were wearing prosthetic enhancements (this is why Pesci's nose doesn't look like his nose). A weird approach, it's like Scorsese said "we'll never be able to fool them because the audience knows their faces too well", so he decided to just have ILM create new faces that look a lot like the actors, and focus more on making it look like the character is actually there than making it look exactly as the actors were at that age (and properly translating the performance the actor gave).

@mcfatty007 4 года назад

@@matiful23 Prioritizing performance over believably being younger is an interesting approach. Even in this video, which I think shows that OBVIOUSLY the deepfake is more convincing for aging... there are a number of shots where bits of the performance are changed and it could change how we read the character. Little downturns in the mouth or subtleties around the eyes are less expressive, giving him a more neutral look in the deepfakes. I noticed it @2:20 but now that I look back through it... pretty much every shot reads slightly more neutrally in the deepfake.

@matiful23 4 года назад

@@mcfatty007 It's really noticeable on that scene at the end. He's not doing that thing De Niro does with his mouth in the ILM version. Also, deepfake can't slim down actors on their necks and body - which they did a lot of. Not yet anyways.

@@mdavis1992 Dunno if they did, but it would have been good if they had given DeNiro knee and ankle braces to wear. He could popped ibuprofen as well to help him ease any joint pain too and maybe taken up Yoga. One of the reasons Deniro walks like this is probably because of dodgy joints and unsure footing. He didn't need to be doing cart wheels, but he needed to look like he was a bit more sure of himself and his footing. Harrison Ford wouldn't have this problem.

I think it was Jeremy Jahns that said that how he saw the de aging in The Irishman was that it was making the character look younger, not Deniro. He compared it to Ant Man where in that, they make Michael Douglas look like how he did in one of his older movies, but in the Irishman, it's making the character Deniro is playing, look like a younger version of that character. So, I think Scorsese was going about this much differently than what can be done in a deepfake. Plus, your deepfake is much easier to do because of the effects already in the movie, I imagine it wouldn't be as seamless if you were deepfaking Deniro on his own.

It's like I'm not watching Robert De Niro perform. It literally could be anybody else with Robert De Niro's face deepfake'd and voice added. It's like watching an animation. It's not real. One of the reasons why people like watching live action dramas is because of acting and great actors like Bob or Al Pacino bring so much to the table with their very subtle, but still visible, facial expressions. The de-aging done by Netflix is still superior in my opinion. It doesn't lose the facial expressions unlike deepfake. Maybe if we would somehow combine the two, we could get the ultimate and proper de-aging of actors.

It's not like he & Netflix & the effects artists simply just botched it, it's because he went into the project with the nuances of his actors being more chiefly important than how flashy the de-aging effects looked.

His eyes look so much younger, I don’t think I could see the original the same if I rewatched it!

That conversation scene with Keitel and DeNiro with the deepfake is incredibly insane. It's so sad to me that they spent millions of dollars developing their own software only for it to be so mediocre. This is amazing!

I think the guy that did deepfake did it on top of the already de-aged version to improve it. Ask him to do it to the original capture and I bet you it wouldn't as good.

@@sampleinstruments10 It doesn't matter. Deepfake gets you the same result in every face regardless, if De Niro wasn't de-aged it would still give you the same result.
