  1. Given audio of President Barack Obama, we synthesize a high quality video
  2. of him speaking with accurate lip sync, composited into a target video clip.
  3. Trained on many hours of his weekly address footage, a recurrent neural
  4. network learns the mapping from raw audio features to mouth shapes. Given
  5. the mouth shape at each time instant, we synthesize high quality mouth
  6. texture, and composite it with proper 3D pose matching to change what he
  7. appears to be saying in a target video to match the input audio track. Our
  8. approach produces photorealistic results
