No English language [dialogue] was changed. This was a manual process, done by our sound team and Respeecher in post-production. The aim was to preserve the authenticity of Adrien and Felicity\u2019s performances in another language, not to replace or alter them and done with the utmost respect for the craft.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Deadline also claims that generative AI was used to create architectural blueprints shown during one of the film&#8217;s final sequences, though Corbet writes, &#8220;All images were hand-drawn by artists. To clarify, in the memorial video featured in the background of a shot, our editorial team created pictures intentionally designed to look like poor digital renderings circa 1980.&#8221; As for the buildings so pivotal to the film&#8217;s architectural arc, Corbet says, &#8220;[Production designer] Judy Becker and her team did not use AI to create or render any of the buildings.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The post-production use of AI first came to light earlier this month in an interview between the film&#8217;s editor, D\u00e1vid Jancs\u00f3, and <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.redsharknews.com\/why-epic-period-drama-movie-the-brutalist-was-shot-on-vistavision\" target=\"_blank\">Red Shark News<\/a>. This article originally claimed that GenAI was used to create both architectural drawings <em>as well as <\/em>the finished buildings seen onscreen. <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.redsharknews.com\/the-brutalist-and-the-ongoing-debate-about-the-role-of-ai-in-the-movies\" target=\"_blank\">A more recent update from<\/a> Red Shark News responds to Corbet&#8217;s claims, citing <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/filmmakermagazine.com\/117846-midjourney-generative-ai\/\" target=\"_blank\">this 2022 interview for Film Maker Magazine<\/a> with Judy Becker.<\/p>\n<p>In this earlier interview, Becker says that architecture consultant Griffin Frazen used Midjourney to quickly generate a number of Brutalist-style structures that would then be &#8220;redrawn by an illustrator to create mythical buildings.&#8221; Based on this, it appears that AI was definitely involved during the initial ideation process, but AI-generated images did not end up onscreen wholesale. This admitted use of Midjourney as a jumping-off point in pre-production is still disheartening though, as many creatives would argue that the ability to ideate is a foundational part of the work.<\/p>\n<p>As for the spoken Hungarian dialogue, let&#8217;s return to that interview between Red Shark News and D\u00e1vid Jancs\u00f3. Jancs\u00f3 is a native speaker of Hungarian himself, and says that both Brody and Jones &#8220;did a fabulous job&#8221; speaking &#8220;one of the most difficult languages to learn to pronounce.&#8221; Still, the production team wanted the spoken Hungarian dialogue to sound so authentic that &#8220;not even locals will spot any difference.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:4856px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:66.68%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"hV7M2FA5cPEReitsKSHLFC\" name=\"GettyImages-2194006053\" alt=\"LONDON, ENGLAND - JANUARY 15: Brady Corbet, Felicity Jones, Adrien Brody, Guy Pearce and Mona Fastvold attend \"The Brutalist\" photocall at The Barbican Centre on January 15, 2025 in London, England.

The level of authenticity sought continued to prove elusive throughout these sessions though, which finally brings us to the involvement of Ukraine-based speech synthesis company Respeecher.<\/p>\n<p>Respeecher&#8217;s technology has previously been used to <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.respeecher.com\/case-studies\/respeecher-synthesized-younger-luke-skywalkers-voice-disneys-mandalorian\" target=\"_blank\">clone the voice of a younger Mark Hamill for the Mandalorian<\/a>, and Jancs\u00f3 goes on to assuage a number of ethical concerns I had about how the company creates its synthetic voices. In the case of The Brutalist, actors Adrien Brody and Felicity Jones both willingly contributed their voices to the AI model in order to create the appropriate audio target for the eventual cloned voices. D\u00e1vid Jancs\u00f3 also contributed his own voice to the model to help create the desired Hungarian pronunciation.<\/p>\n<p>Jancs\u00f3 told Red Shark News, &#8220;Most of their Hungarian dialogue has a part of me talking in there. We were very careful about keeping their performances. It&#8217;s mainly just replacing letters here and there. You can do this in ProTools yourself, but we had so much dialogue in Hungarian that we really needed to speed up the process otherwise we&#8217;d still be in post.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;We had so much dialogue in Hungarian that we really needed to speed up the process otherwise we&#8217;d still be in post.&#8221;<\/p><figcaption><cite>D\u00e1vid Jancs\u00f3, film editor for The Brutalist.<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/blockquote>\n<\/figure>\n<p>As a Brit, I&#8217;ve definitely heard my fair share of poorly imitated regional accents\u2014and as an occasional German speaker, I am frequently humbled when native speakers switch to English once they get a load of my abysmal accent. Speaking like a local in any target language is no easy feat, even for the most talented actor, and going to such lengths to faithfully portray spoken Hungarian to a broad audience is laudable.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s also praise-worthy is the actually thoughtful and considered use of AI. For a start, AI was implemented as a tool to be used <em>by<\/em> human hands, and not a haphazard replacement cynically intended to eliminate a job. Furthermore, the production team did not rely on established audio models utilising questionably sourced datasets\u2014everyone who gave voice to The Brutalist&#8217;s spoken Hungarian dialogue appears to have had a real say in it.
