Video Rewrite

About This Movie

So, Video Rewrite is kind of fascinating in that it dives into the early days of deepfake technology, way before it became a buzzword. You can feel the experimental vibe throughout, a blend of animation and documentary that really tries to explore the implications of manipulating video. The pacing can be a bit erratic, but it somehow adds to the atmosphere—like you're on this weird journey through the evolution of media. What stands out is the practical effects; the early attempts at facial reanimation are both clunky and groundbreaking. It’s this odd mix of nostalgia and cautionary tale about technology's reach. Definitely not your typical animation, but it gets you thinking about authenticity and representation in a very raw way.
