This is a no-budget experiment uses apps that are freely accessible to everyone, it is not AI prompt generated slop, but does use AI powered tools such as marker-less mocap, voice cloning, face replacement, 'creative' upscaling and AI-processed facial performance capture. The project is an exploration of bringing a classic show that was missed by many, to a new audience.
