Flawless AI Lip Synch Software For Dubbing

AI is breaking into the stage and stealing the scripts of tradition in Hollywood. From stabilizing formally shaky video footage to taking out words in audio automatically by just removing parts of the script. AI is, well, taking over.?

Remember the now older technology of CGI face swap? Every day users now have access to face swap technology which is hard to believe, but is it? The company DeepVoodoo took the “AI face swap” concept to new levels in 2020 creating software that seamlessly interchanges the entire body of an actor to anything else with no sensors (CGI or MOCAP-type technology).?This technology is advancing in the film industry.

Today AI is proliferating in post-production everywhere as it expertly helps all aspects from sound design, coloring, SFX, VFX, and film editing to rating.?

Remember you and your friends sharing hilarious lip synch videos or watching an old blast from the past film where the poor dubbing and dialoged lag made the film miserable to watch?

It’s the dawn of a new era.

Dubbing has greatly benefited from AI-powered software. Dubbing is updating dialog in a film (that might not fit what the actor previously had said) due to script changes, translations, and more. And from watching some of the older films it’s no mystery that this was a tricky endeavor. Dubbing AI software now helps with seamless film dialogue changes, translation, and captioning making a film seem like it was shot that way from the beginning.?

Flawless is a leading company built by two filmmaking gurus Scott Mann and Nick Lynes that created AI-powered software to make life easier for dubbing films. The software uses advanced research, in large by Gaurav Bharaj, to train its AI programming to generate perfect lip synch.? The program adds a digital mesh (through advanced keypoint technology) to an actor’s face allowing the program to pull the actor’s lips (using advanced 3D geometry aware type keypoints) and seamlessly generate to perfectly match whatever dialogue is added to the film. This means this software has the power to make anyone on-screen voice words perfectly they may not have originally said in the initial take.

Films can be run through this program to proliferate the entire movie into a different language where the LIPS MATCH what is being said no matter the language. Gone are the days of trying to read quick-moving subtitles to understand what is going on in a film. Also gone are the days of dialogue lag and untimely sound edits on older dubbed films.

Needless to say formerly, a film of someone, was proof that they said or didn’t say something. Now with AI-powered technology such as what Flawless has created how could that change more than just the industrial film industry? How could this affect actors and everyday humans in the future? Time will sure tell.
