It’s Real to Me

First, we see the quote ‘It’s real to me” presented in white text against a light turquoise background. The scene then transitions to a split screen featuring two individuals engrossed in their phones. On the left, a young boy with brown hair and eyes is wearing a white polo shirt adorned with small anchor designs, seeming to sit outside, with a backdrop of tree bark. He looks down at his phone with a slightly puzzled expression. Accompanying him is a text message bubble that reads, ‘I can’t believe you posted that pic!’, then responds, “What do you mean?”, and then ‘It was just a deepfake’, and last replies, ‘It’s not even real’, and finally, ‘It’s real to me!’.

Simultaneously, on the right side of the screen, we see a young woman with long blond hair, fair skin, and what appears to be a leather jacket, sitting on a bench, with some greenery in the background. Her hair is being blown by the wind. She is also intently focused on her phone, wearing headphones, with a serious expression.

Following this, the text ‘Deepfakes’ appears in bold white letters across both screens. As the video nears its conclusion, the messages ‘aren’t victimless’ and ‘There’s no excuse for making a deepfake of someone’ appear on the screen in sequence.
