Alias is a community-based pseudonymous video platform using photorealistic synthetic identities. Users chose an "alias" (synthetic identity) and film short form videos with their real world face swapped to their synthetic identity, providing a protected environment to create and explore. Current online platforms collapse our private, public, and professional identities into a singular digital identity, making participating either too high pressure or too high risk.  Alias provides a risk free environment for people to learn and explore without sacrificing connection and authenticity.
