No body alterations were done in CG for the deepfake shots in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, which saw Daniel Radcliffe’s face inserted into the actual “Eat It” music video performance footage of Al Yankovic; there was method to the madness reveals VFX Los Angeles VFX Supervisor Izzy Traub.

That was part of the comedy of it. They wanted the face to be manipulated and for the body itself be straight-up Weird Al. We trained our model of Daniel’s face on the footage of Weird Al and rotoscoped, cleaned everything up, did a bunch of other compositing stuff to it, and added the glasses back in.
