Deepfake Analysis - Angles: src 30% side + dst with side views [tweaked]

INTRODUCTION

We are going to determine the requirements of image material to create a successful deepfake. The source material for these tests consists of Youtube videos of the size of 720p showing George W. Bush and George Clooney. We are using the face of Clooney (source) and put it on the face of Bush (destination).

TEST CASE

With this case, we investigated how many side views are necessary in the source material to convincingly fake a target video with side views. The same video from Amount of Images was used as the base video of George W. Bush.

OBSERVATION

Here, too, Nicolas Cage’s facial traits show in some side views. We can therefore conclude that more than 30% of the source recording need to be side views to produce convincing side views.
