@@StEvUgnIn Good question. @Patrick, how about I send you the brand new IpMan4 + $20 and you create a full Deepfake movie for me? This way Hollywood gets paid and you get paid.
DUDE this is actually kind of amazing. Definitely remake all the Bruce Lee scenes in the Ip Man movies. It’s kind of surreal, even though it doesn’t look EXACTLY like him. The face is really well done. I was actually like “YOOOO NO WAAY” out loud.
Danny Chan was born to play this part, l have seen so many Bruce lee lookalikes over so many years but Danny is the only one in my opinion is the closest to Bruce. Shannon Lee did the right thing to have Danny play her father in The Legend of Bruce Lee. I hope he continues to carry the torch for Bruce lee.
Without a shadow of a doubt THE best use of deepfake so far. Truly unbelievable dedication from yourself to create this. As a 54 year old lifelong follower of Bruce Lee and Wing Chun this footage nearly brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Patrick Nan x
Its absolutely insane that his face blends in perfectly, there's no weird cut out or particular area that is off, at least from what I'm seeing. And the replicated facial reactions are phenomenal.
It's crazy how much Danny Chan looks like Bruce. Danny even gets the expressions in their mannerisms down it's so mind-blowing I remember how hyped and excited I was when I first saw him in ip man 3
This is the best use and execution I've seen of Deep Fake! Just wow! The quality is spot on also! Man does hit the nostalgia feels of watching Bruce Lee as a kid in my parent's basement. Great job man!
@@gabycashy5 of course not genius. But great role models help people hold themselves to higher standards. And his philosophy on life would affect a lot of people in a positive way. He would probably have the largest fitness and self defense school, and there are a lot of great things that that come with martial arts like confidence, respect, discipline. The world could use a lot of that, especially after the last several years.
I just saw this one today and man, brought me almost to tears seeing Bruce Lee and how well made this is and it really shows that you put heart to this, well done!
It's moving for people like me who grew up with Bruce Lee movies to see him in such good quality as if he were still alive. Amazing what you can do with deep fakes !
Wow! This is amazing! They should hire you for a digital remake of this whole movie and have you do the deep fake. Any future Bruce Lee movies should have you involved to do the deep fakes.
Patrick thank you from the bottom of my heart for uploading this and working so hard and meticulously on such a great piece of art work demonstrating Bruce Lee's legacy.. This literally brought back the master from you youth and made me feel a warm glow in my body.
Other than certain scenes where the eyeline doesn't match exactly like the original, which is understandably very difficult to get it right, this is one of the most impressive Deepfake I've ever seen so far, blending with the face, the head and with kung fu movements! Great Job bro!! :)
The worst part of playing a character so well that it's the only part that you'll be hired and remembered for. Unfortunately, he may or may not be picked for other characters because of it. Such a great actor.
For the life of me I cannot convince myself that his is anything close to Bruce Lee, even with the deepfake face... The performance is so off, so opposite of Bruce Lee... I just see a completely different person... Limp and soft, no charisma... Lacking everything Bruce had a lot of. Copying mannerisms without the right feeling is pointless... The movements should come from how the person feels... This actor is utterly fake , unconvincing in every movement, every look, the martial arts has none of the intense feeling that Bruce would convey...
@@0ooTheMAXXoo0 yea, mr lee would be turning in his grave. "Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it. ..." for him to imitate him that is opposite of this quote
@@honorabilis1 he can't be "himself". He is acting in a movie. Whatever you guys say, Danny Chan is already a popular actor anyway. He played the villain boss in *Kung Fu Hustle* very well.
Deepfake can change one face to another, but not the general shape of one's face. This means even if we put bruce's face on simu, it can't be this good like on this video. My opinion is to put jackie's face on simu. That would be more interesting and resembling.
@Ahhh Haaa Simu Liu did a bad job at signing comics... refusing to sign the comics that created the character he's playing because he claims it's racist. Wut.
watching this is kind of hard to accept that Bruce is no longer with us, THANKYOU for such awesome work, It meant a lot to us especially those of us growing up under Bruce influence.
I've actually been searching for this for so long! Can't believe I'm seeing it and it just came up on my reccomend! Thanks for making my dream since the film come true
That was fantastic. Bruce Lee is loved & missed so much. With what you've done here; you're giving him back to the world. The Spirit of The Dragon Bruce Lee Lives Forever.
Patrick , i gotta tell you something...You have an amazing skill. It's supremely rare nowadays to find this kind of fantastic quality editing skillset.
Good deepfake, only thing that's different from the real Bruce is movement. He always moved so sharp and fast, every other actor who portrayed him looks more sluggish and heavy in motion. He had this weightless feel about him :)
Brilliantly done, Patrick. Your passion and love for Bruce is clear in this time consuming work that you have dedicated yourself to. The whole film should look like this. Really well done, Bud. 🐲
That sheeit was legit. Like I was specifically looking for imperfections and some of the spots where I expected there to be some there were none. Excellent work
I loved this video. As a big fan of Bruce Lee I've been waiting for a good Deepfake video. This hit the nail on the head. If possible could you do more. Thanks
You know, I would love to see remakes but with "original" legends like Bruce lee. I mean, enter the dragon 2022 with an actor playing Bruce but then deepfake in post. I would pay a ticket to see that.
This makes me tear up. "Seeing" him again, thank you very much. This is wonderful piece of art. Even though the writing isn't his, Like I said before seeing him means a lot. You made my year. Thank you for doing all of this.
patrick thank you for putting this together... your work is pure amazing! they should rewrite game of death with your deepfake into the game the dragon.
This was so wonderfully executed! Watching this took me back to my childhood and a time when I actually saw Bruce Lee films at the movie theater. But it makes me wonder.....I don't understand why Hollywood studios are not already employing these deepfake methods in films. I like Danny Chan, but why not have the real deal if it is possible? I think Hollywood is many years away from conceding and using this method in films. Even in films like Rogue One, where they had permission to use the likeness of key individuals, they still used the awful, cartoon-like, CGI even though this method was available at the time. Using deepfakes for films like this will not only help make the films more authentic looking, but would also help to revitalize interest in the individuals who are being recreated. In this case, introducing a new generation to Bruce Lee and his films! And not only that, but recreating people who have passed away could also help generate, and much-needed in some cases, funds for the estates of these individuals. If the family of a person gives their permission to use someone's likeness, then Hollywood should be doing this already. It is time to step away from the awful CGI that is being used and step up to deepfakes! Great video!
They've made a lot of strides with deepfakes even in the last couple of years. When Rogue One was made, deepfakes simply weren't as good, especially in the resolution department. Vfx companies have since started using the tech.
@@haysoos123 I must disagree with you. When Rogue One came out, there was a deep fake, and I'm sure it's still up, that was made shortly after its release. The Princess Leia deep fake they did was was fantastic. And yes, even though here have been many advances since, at the time Rogue one was released, what was being done in deep fakes was far superior to what the industry was using as a standard; the released deep fake proved that. It's the same with this Bruce Lee footage here. This advanced tech existed at the time this film was made, but like Rogue One, film companies, for whatever reason, will not use deep fakes. Just watch, no matter how great this gets, they will not use it! And, I would not be surprised if some industry insider later reveals that there's an unwritten code against using deep fakes. It might also be cheaper to recreate in CGI than to pay the family of a dead celeb for their true and actual likeness. The back to the future likeness lawsuit also changed the rules on how actors are being paid for their likeness, so I'm sure that has something to do with it.
I think what I like the most about this is during the moves he looks a lot more relaxed which is soft-power output. Sure Bruce liked to flex and show off a lot of muscle tension, but when you're transmitting force into an opponent your muscles can't be fighting the direction of the force by being overly tense. I love Danny's performance even if I disagree with the direction of the movie at times, but he really does have a bit too much tension in his movements and it shows a lot in his face.
actually you're supposed to tense some muscles (including the fist) right before impact. if you don't, a lot of the energy that would've otherwise went into the target gets lost. i don't know if bruce lee ever said otherwise but that's the generally accepted practice across many effective martial arts today like muay thai
@@ahverypro you have to tense muscles to even initiate the motion. But once you have proper form feeding the force of your weight through your target, it’s actually ideal to relax your muscles for two reasons: 1: The first move you made is pure and complete in execution without antagonistic force rebounding into your own body. 2: You’re free and clear to initiate another move often with the same limb with more dynamic muscle engagement, more adaptation to the threat, and even more force for the first move with a tear-drop motion. So it’s not that you’re completely wrong in execution, it’s that your foundation should be relaxed states where the “tensing the fist right before impact” could instead represent a dynamic technique with a variety of optional outcomes, such as a “snake punch.”
You’re over complicating things, what Perry said wasn’t disagreement with you, he just said that it’s standard doctrine to tense certain parts of your body punches and kicks etc. before impact. e.g. It’s standard doctrine within Wing Chun/Ving Tsun to tighten your fists and wrists when you hyper extend your arms to land a punch right before impact. When you roundhouse with say your left leg you ground yourself better if you tense your right thigh and calf up, as well as angling in & locking up your right ankle, which enhances the power of the kick.
@@dillonnikolausmatteusl3075 right and I’m not going to pretend to argue that someone is completely wrong, etc. We all have what works for us, and it probably works extremely well, because of two major reasons: 1: Familiarity from hundreds of reps with many different kinds of opponents. 2: Being muscular and fit is steps above and ahead of 90% of the population and even offers an intimidation factor that can feed success even if it allows for bias. For instance the roundhouse kick you’re describing works in the way you described but for a specific purpose. In your example, the kick starts with the rotation of the hips and the weight transfer starts with the foot of your right leg on the ground. On impact your planted leg is tightest at the moment of impact. You tense the planted leg to stay stable. So let’s say you’re moving toward the target, your force in a predictable line, prepared at any point to stop one leg and snap the other in that kick. One problem I have with a focus on stability is if you get tackled by a second opponent you’re only choice is bringing the fight to the ground. But what if you could land the same powerful kick by using your opponent as a stabilizer, taking some weight and labor off of your right leg and forcing your opponent to carry it? Okay, the way I would describe the kick itself in a foundation of movement would be “anchoring” your joints from your hip down to your knee and finally your ankle. So technically at the moment of impact, each joint contributing to the strike is locked in relation to each other. Yes it requires some muscle tension to achieve this, but in my experience that’s not the same thing as the kind of muscularity in your actual thigh, calf, or foot at full or even half tension. So in my opinion leaving your thigh and calf tight is just a muscle exercise and not strictly useful for power output. And as I said to start with, it can be detrimental due to requiring more effort, tiring you throughout the course of a conflict, and by being tense you are taking some of the impact of your own strikes that could have just gone pretty much completely into your opponent. Example: If on impact you imagine flicking mud off of your foot, you’ll naturally relax those muscles while keeping your ankle anchored. Further, if the line drawn through your leg joints is parallel to the rest of your body’s natural orientation, that’s being in good form and good habits to prevent injury. So at each stage of motion your body can articulate good power without huge muscles. It’s nice to have muscles. My point is overall dynamic fitness is much more desirable for a fighter, and even if you can’t or won’t build muscle like your peers, you absolutely can punch above your weight class.
dude those side shots are fucking flawless. only the front shots are a little flat but isnt anything that couldnt be fixed with 3d projection. but even with that flatter look its worth it because of how much more it looks like bruce lee than the official version. great job!
I’m old enough to remember the impact Bruce Lee made to the martial arts world that I was so enamored with when I was a kid. Seeing this deep fake hit me right smack in the feels. Idk how else to feel about this, it’s strange. Uncanny valley or something. But watching this got my stomach tied up in a knot. Lol.
what a friggin wonderful job! amazing way to honor the Legend! Thank you Patrick! My only regret is they didn't have Danny remove his sunglasses at the end during Ip Man's funeral. That would have been beautiful have seen deep faked with Bruce!
4:02 You can even see the seriousness in bruce lee's fce compared to the actor, even when passed away he still remains the face of a warrior no of a general!!!
I feel like one of the problems with deepfakes is the eyes always look a little dead or soulless. Maybe some digital enhancement like an eye light would help.
Yeah that seems to be a general problem. I noticed the eyes hardly have any specular highlights. And maybe really small eye movements are also getting lost?
Patrick Nan, dude you have some amazing skills. I appreciate the time and effort you have put into this art. Keep up doing it if you wish and I will thank you in advance. What a great way to honor the master Bruce Lee.
After decades of watching Danny Chan play near flawless renditions of the iconic legend, I've learned you can Deepfake Bruce Lee's face on anyone, but you can't FAKE the DEEP commitment Danny has always brought to his Lee portrayals. The man literally loses himself in the character.
Actually, the first fighting scene at the tournament was done very good in the film (without Deepfake), I was very impressed to bo honest. The actor and the film crew did well on that one.
Great Deepfake, but damn did this franchise take a dive. I wasn't able to get through 3 so I never saw Ip - Man 4. After this, I am happy I never attempted to.
Ip Man 1 is more of a serious drama, the rest of the films are more typical martial arts films that aren't necessarily realistic but still pretty entertaining.

feels like a wound that still did not heal after Bruce left us so early...imagine the greatness we could have recieved in cinema with bruce lee
Holy crap, 6 months? I think the longest I've spent on any 1 video was around a month. That's some dedication. Nice work!
the deepfake one looks even crisper than the original..Wow. Brilliantly done Sir
It is great. However some facial emotions from the actor gets lost behind the deepfake mask.
@@TomAnderson7 yes but perhaps thats because bruce lee has abnormal emotional control his facial expressions are more flat than a normal human
I don't see a difference watching this. This dude is literally his twin lol
it kind of doesn't though. Look at the eyebrows.

Why in the basement? LOL
plz explain this video - i didnt get it at all - whats it about
This almost makes me tearful. The world would be different if Bruce were still with us, I honestly believe that.
Same feelings here.
Would have loved him see him put in check all the people who claimed they taught him anything or had any credit to who he was.
hes an actor hes not going to cure world hunger and cancer relax
@@gabycashy5 of course not genius. But great role models help people hold themselves to higher standards. And his philosophy on life would affect a lot of people in a positive way.

So it’s not that you’re completely wrong in execution, it’s that your foundation should be relaxed states where the “tensing the fist right before impact” could instead represent a dynamic technique with a variety of optional outcomes, such as a “snake punch.”
You’re over complicating things, what Perry said wasn’t disagreement with you, he just said that it’s standard doctrine to tense certain parts of your body punches and kicks etc. before impact.
e.g. It’s standard doctrine within Wing Chun/Ving Tsun to tighten your fists and wrists when you hyper extend your arms to land a punch right before impact.
When you roundhouse with say your left leg you ground yourself better if you tense your right thigh and calf up, as well as angling in & locking up your right ankle, which enhances the power of the kick.
@@dillonnikolausmatteusl3075 right and I’m not going to pretend to argue that someone is completely wrong, etc. We all have what works for us, and it probably works extremely well, because of two major reasons:
1: Familiarity from hundreds of reps with many different kinds of opponents.
2: Being muscular and fit is steps above and ahead of 90% of the population and even offers an intimidation factor that can feed success even if it allows for bias.
For instance the roundhouse kick you’re describing works in the way you described but for a specific purpose. In your example, the kick starts with the rotation of the hips and the weight transfer starts with the foot of your right leg on the ground. On impact your planted leg is tightest at the moment of impact. You tense the planted leg to stay stable. So let’s say you’re moving toward the target, your force in a predictable line, prepared at any point to stop one leg and snap the other in that kick. One problem I have with a focus on stability is if you get tackled by a second opponent you’re only choice is bringing the fight to the ground. But what if you could land the same powerful kick by using your opponent as a stabilizer, taking some weight and labor off of your right leg and forcing your opponent to carry it?
Okay, the way I would describe the kick itself in a foundation of movement would be “anchoring” your joints from your hip down to your knee and finally your ankle. So technically at the moment of impact, each joint contributing to the strike is locked in relation to each other. Yes it requires some muscle tension to achieve this, but in my experience that’s not the same thing as the kind of muscularity in your actual thigh, calf, or foot at full or even half tension. So in my opinion leaving your thigh and calf tight is just a muscle exercise and not strictly useful for power output. And as I said to start with, it can be detrimental due to requiring more effort, tiring you throughout the course of a conflict, and by being tense you are taking some of the impact of your own strikes that could have just gone pretty much completely into your opponent.
Example: If on impact you imagine flicking mud off of your foot, you’ll naturally relax those muscles while keeping your ankle anchored. Further, if the line drawn through your leg joints is parallel to the rest of your body’s natural orientation, that’s being in good form and good habits to prevent injury. So at each stage of motion your body can articulate good power without huge muscles.
It’s nice to have muscles. My point is overall dynamic fitness is much more desirable for a fighter, and even if you can’t or won’t build muscle like your peers, you absolutely can punch above your weight class.
those scenes in the diner are insane. amazing work
dude those side shots are fucking flawless. only the front shots are a little flat but isnt anything that couldnt be fixed with 3d projection. but even with that flatter look its worth it because of how much more it looks like bruce lee than the official version. great job!
The whole movie needs to be done that way. Brings Bruce back to life!
it''s will be an insult to the actor that play bruce
I’m old enough to remember the impact Bruce Lee made to the martial arts world that I was so enamored with when I was a kid.
Seeing this deep fake hit me right smack in the feels. Idk how else to feel about this, it’s strange. Uncanny valley or something. But watching this got my stomach tied up in a knot. Lol.
They should've used this deepfake in the movie itself, love it
what a friggin wonderful job! amazing way to honor the Legend! Thank you Patrick! My only regret is they didn't have Danny remove his sunglasses at the end during Ip Man's funeral. That would have been beautiful have seen deep faked with Bruce!
Well done....though it does make me miss Bruce Lee that much more. Amazing, Patrick!
4:02 You can even see the seriousness in bruce lee's fce compared to the actor, even when passed away he still remains the face of a warrior no of a general!!!
I feel like one of the problems with deepfakes is the eyes always look a little dead or soulless. Maybe some digital enhancement like an eye light would help.
Yeah that seems to be a general problem. I noticed the eyes hardly have any specular highlights. And maybe really small eye movements are also getting lost?
This is so good!
Patrick Nan, dude you have some amazing skills. I appreciate the time and effort you have put into this art.
Keep up doing it if you wish and I will thank you in advance. What a great way to honor the master Bruce Lee.
Your work is great this is one of the best I've seen!
I loved this and had a dumb smile on my face the whole time. 😃
After decades of watching Danny Chan play near flawless renditions of the iconic legend, I've learned you can Deepfake Bruce Lee's face on anyone, but you can't FAKE the DEEP commitment Danny has always brought to his Lee portrayals. The man literally loses himself in the character.
Very close to the real actor the actor they used
Your art is beautiful. I cried. Thank you for making this.
Insane work!
The average viewer wouldn't even notice.. also this would have been really great and definetly possible for the original creators
Actually, the first fighting scene at the tournament was done very good in the film (without Deepfake), I was very impressed to bo honest. The actor and the film crew did well on that one.
bem que podiam fazer um filme novo do bruce lee nesse estilo!
Poderia ser uma saga igual fizeram com o Ip Man
Nossa seria muito dahora
Great Deepfake, but damn did this franchise take a dive. I wasn't able to get through 3 so I never saw Ip - Man 4. After this, I am happy I never attempted to.
Ip Man 1 is more of a serious drama, the rest of the films are more typical martial arts films that aren't necessarily realistic but still pretty entertaining.
@@calebhu6383 I'm not necessarily looking for realistic. I just don't find them to be made as well; the art of the craft suffered, in my opinion.
Wow !! Good For You For Being Able To Create This. You Have Awesome Talent.
Amazing work man. Giant studios should have notice you by now.
Deepfake seems odd think the hairstyle isnt really bruce lee accurate, but fitted the actor more.
what are you talking about? that is exactly how bruce lee's hairstyle was, have you seen any photos of him outside of movies??
bruce lee is epic it's always cool to see these digital recreations it's art
Not sure how this came up in my recommendations but well done sir.
Amazing job on the deepfake. Also the thumbs up at the end always cracks me up.
that's chilling. i cried. i miss Bruce lee. thank you for the content, these are the reasons to use deep fake
