Watch the Skies review – see the lips move in alien abduction sci-fi with pioneering AI
The article discusses the Swedish sci-fi film "Watch the Skies," which is notable for its early use of a technique called "vubbing" - using AI technology to match the lip movements of the original actors to new English dialogue. The film follows Denise, a rebellious teenager whose father disappeared in 1988 while searching for aliens. When his old car falls from the sky years later, Denise teams up with her father's friends at UFO-Sweden to investigate the mystery. The article highlights that the film is in English, despite being a Swedish production, due to this innovative AI-assisted dubbing process, which is aimed at reaching a wider international audience that may be averse to reading subtitles or watching a traditional dub. The article suggests that this technique could become more commonplace as streaming platforms seek cost-effective ways to distribute content globally.
