What does it mean for the future of cinema when someone's face and voice can be digitally replicated, with varying degrees of that person's knowledge or control? Will audiences embrace synthetic humans as just another evolution in VFX, or push back against AI actors?

Kelsey Farish has been advising on digital replicas and voice cloning since 2019, becoming one of the first lawyers in the world to do so. She regularly advises production companies, indie filmmakers, cultural institutions, industry bodies, and talent on the legal, commercial - and very human - implications of AI in film & scripted TV. Join her for a practical discussion about what filmmakers, performers, and other creatives should know as digital replicas enter the frame.
