Synthetic media is a realistic transformation of audio and video using artificial intelligence. Currently, there are several applications based on this technology, but it’s developing rapidly, attracting more and more public attention.
-
On one hand, this technology is a holy grail for advertisers and filmmakers which can give them endless opportunities to use any faces of celebrities in their projects. With the help of our platform, the celebrity will be able to pronounce the text of the commercial in all the world's known languages. The advertiser will have a chance to create a separate commercial for ten thousand products, having only one digitized version of the celebrity's face. Film producers won't have to pay multimillion-dollar royalties to celebrities, it will be enough to buy their face.
-
On the other hand, without proper regulation this technology is a sophisticated threat for businesses and individuals. The illegal use of faces is gaining momentum. Debates about the originality of the synthetic videos and lawsuits attract lots of attention, thereby encouraging the creation of content with celebrities without their consent. Technology is evolving fast and it’s only a matter of time before synthetic videos will be no longer distinguishable from the original.
We believe that with the help of blockchain this problem can be solved, NFT have a potential to represent digital avatars of the users and regulate the relationship between video producers and celebrities, while copyright and data protection laws still cannot.
Our solution is a blockchain-based NFT marketplace of digital faces with a platform for synthetic videos generation.
Platform is so intuitive that The user for example celebrity will be able to digitize his face by uploading a video of himself to the platform. Digital avatar of the user will be presented on the platform for the potential customers. After receiving the offer to buy the face, the user will be able to choose whether to sell it for this particular video/commercial. In case of consent, an NFT token gets created.
After the token is minted, potential video creators can purchase this NFT, thereby acquiring the right to use the celebrity's face to create one synthetic video.
With our solution, video creators will be able to purchase a digitized face and produce a video with this face on the same platform. And all this without the need for real filming and with digital confirmation on the blockchain. The NFT will eliminate the need to obtain IPR rights, which will be assigned to the video content producers with the purchase of the token.
We have identified 2 main areas where our solution may be in demand. Video marketing
Video production today is a very expensive process that includes the rent of cameras, studios and payments for the work of actors.
There are several stages of the video creation process:
Concept development (plot, plans, etc.);
Pre-production (preparation of scripts, equipment);
Shooting;
Post-production (editing of the footage);
Once a commercial is filmed, it is very difficult to make any edits, they are expensive and time-consuming. But instead of shooting a new video for marketing localization, language replacement and other corrections, it's enough to simply edit the existing one on the post production stage using our technology. For example, we are able to remove all parasite words from the video, replace phrases and translate a video into different languages with a natural voice and facial expressions of the actor.
Our target audience is video creation agencies, film studios, and individual authors.

Recommends for good results: upload small videos (5-20 seconds long), keep your face away from the camera for better quality, use videos with standard lighting.

Our contracts has all needed basic functions to work with NFT tokens:
MintTokenToAddress(address owner, string memory metadataURI)
Allows you to mint a NFT token.
TransferFrom(address from, address to, uint256 tokenId)
Allows you to transfer any NFT token on other address.
Implementation of access control
NFT Market
Allows you to list and sell created NFT tokens. Functions:
createMarketItem(address nftContract,uint256 tokenId,uint256 price)
createMarketSale(address nftContract,uint256 itemId)
fetchMarketItems() public view returns (MarketItem[] memory)
fetchMyNFTs() public view returns (MarketItem[] memory)
API
{server}/create/{name}
Allows you to mint a NFT token
{server}/upload_file_to_ipfs
Uploading a media file to IPFS storage
We are planning further development of the platform. The current demo version is more intended for testing purposes, so it's UI/UX is a little bit complex. In the production version, the interface will be much simpler and easier to use, i.e. users will only need to upload a video, select a face, pay a fee, and a faceswap video will be automatically generated along with the NFT token. We already have a design for the production version, and we are working on the frontend/backend for further updates.
- Integrate copyrights mechanism
- Integrate NFT sales/transfer options in UI

How to use Pre-requisites:
Node.js Git LFS Local development: This site uses Git LFS with Netlify Large Media. So you need to perform some steps BEFORE YOU CLONE THE REPO. First check your git lfs version:
git lfs version Check that the version is 2.5.1 or later. If it is not, install it from Git LFS
Install the netlify-cli and login using the credentials in 1password marketing vault:
npm install -g netlify-cli netlify login Install the git netlify credential helper
netlify lm:install You should see output like:
$ netlify lm:install ✔ Checking Git version [2.30.2] ✔ Checking Git LFS version [2.13.2] ✔ Checking Git LFS filters ✔ Installing Netlify's Git Credential Helper for Linux ✔ Configuring Git to use Netlify's Git Credential Helper Verify that it has actually altered your git config:
cat ~/.gitconfig You should see something like this at the end:
path = /home//.config/netlify/helper/git-config If not, add it.
Now clone the repo!
Run the site npm install npm run dev Open a browser to view the site http://localhost:8080
