We tried to play mindtricks with an illusionist by creating a deepfake

Check out this Real Fake deepfake with Dutch illusionist Victor Mids. Super happy with it. 

To give a small glimpse into the kitchen, because there is quite a bit of work involved; 

– FairFake.ai, founded by Sezer Karaoglu and Theo Gevers, made the deepfake and did the polishing of the deepfake. 

– Sogeti Trainee Nour Youssef did the acting and magic. 

– Nicolette van der Heide, Menno Van Doorn, Sander Duivestein, Margo Langeweg contributed to the concept and organization. 

– Ben Roelfsema and Sanne Leeh created formats for TikTok, Instagram and the bookstore.
– Bot Publishers is going to have it played on TVs in bookshops in the spring. 🙌 

Again: really glad and thankful for this collab. And happy to put into practice what we write about in our book Real Fake: tinyurl.com/realfakebook. 😁
