It was good to see DeForest Kelley and Leonard Nimoy again. This technology may not be time travel, but it feels like it.

[vincemazo]

Quinto's voice sounds so wrong coming out of Leonard Nimoy's face.

[combathoney]

Nimoy's face fits perfectly over Quinto's - their bone structure is so similar.

[jgvillan]

It is so freaky that Leonard Nimoy fits in so naturally.

[JohanDeknudt]

Wait a minute! That's not the real McCoy.

[davelightman]

Some of these shots work better than others - but in general they are all great, and some of them are spectacular. The shot of Kirk at 1:54, for example, is absolutely extraordinary. Now we just need to be able to deepfake voices, and we'd be in business. On another note - kudos on the editing. Really well put together!

[SJReid]

This just makes me want a CGI Trek series set in the original series with a de-aged Shatner/Nimoy/Kelley and rest of cast. Basically give us the season 4 and 5 we never got. We are at a point now where it could be done...and quite convincingly.

Edit - because people keep replying to this comment by bashing current Star Trek trends, let me be specific by saying, just because I'd like a Trek series featuring a CGI'd original cast, doesn't mean I'd want one made by current standards of Trek writing/production. So please, stop replying to this with how much you don't want a series like that handled by the current production staff. Neither would I. But that was never the point of this comment.

The deepfake is impressive, but the editing brilliance is what really makes this video so amazing!

[crossfire]

Chris pine and shatners features really agree with each other

[nikolaki]

I suffered cognitive dissonance looking at Shatner's face with Pine's hair.😂

[markamargo]

I would rewatch the entire Kelvin Timeline movie trilogy deep-faked like that. It would be awesome 👏🏼

[gundam_Chaos]

Spock deepfake is so flawless. Both Quinto and Nimoy share same face shape.

[PDohm]

If one didn't know any better, one could almost *swear* that it really was William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy and DeForest Kelley in these scenes. You are insanely impressive with your skill at video/cgi editing. I'm just in awe....

[scotchbox]

This is some of the cleanest DeepFake work I've seen, and you're using it on Star Trek. You deserve all of the subs.

[WooperatThePond]

now imagine if someone with the resources of an entire studio did this? It would be totally indistinguishable from reality

[alfonsgarciaalbarran]

Leonard Nimoy and Deforest Kelley are the best Deepfake of the three ones, the surprise was Ricardo Montalban as Khan again

[ladygreen]

The facial mix between Shatner and pine is one extremely good looking man.

[alexgataric]

Excellent editing of Kobyoshi Maru clips from Wrath of Khan and the Kelvin films. These are my favorite scenes from both movies.

[frankiesomeone]

Stellar job, a year from now we'll be making and watching full-movie deepfaked fanedits

[alcoholic]

Why wasn't Jeffery Hunter used as Christopher Pike as well? I mean, if you're going retro...
