Deepfakes often have unnatural facial movements, such as twitching or glitching, especially around the mouth and eyes.
In deepfake videos, the eyes may not always align naturally with the rest of the face or may lack appropriate blinking patterns.
Look closely at the lip movements and audio sync. Inaccurate lip-syncing or mismatched speech can be telltale signs of a deepfake.
Deepfakes may exhibit inconsistencies in skin texture, such as pixelation or blurriness, particularly around the edges of the face.
Inconsistent lighting and shadows on the face or background can indicate that the person has been digitally manipulated.
Pay attention to any distortions or anomalies in the background, as deepfake algorithms may struggle to maintain realism beyond the main subject.
Deepfakes may have difficulty accurately rendering hair and hairlines, leading to unnatural or jagged edges.
Check for unusual artefacts or distortions, such as strange reflections or smudges, which can be indicative of digital manipulation.
Deepfake videos may have subtle audio distortions or anomalies, such as echoes or inconsistencies in background noise.
