Sample Films

This page presents sample films created from photographs and voice cloning. Visuals are developed through animated photographs, and the individual appears as a digital avatar with narration generated through voice cloning, using either a personal recording sample or publicly available historical audio.

The films fall into two categories:

  • Personal Memory Films: Centered on individual life experiences and meaningful moments, structured from photographs and voice recordings into cohesive narrative works.
  • Heritage Films: Designed to preserve the voices and stories of elders or families, transforming existing materials into lasting visual records.

* Production may combine animated photographs, digital avatar narration, and scene reconstruction. See the “Production Approach” page for details.

** Except for the individual portrayed, other persons appearing in the photographs have been masked where necessary to protect their privacy.

*** AI-based image, video, and voice technologies continue to evolve rapidly. As new techniques become available, we refine and expand the sample works presented here.
