The proliferation of DeepFake technology is a rising challenge in today's society, owing to more powerful and accessible generation methods. To counter this, the research community has developed detectors of ever-increasing accuracy. However, the ability to explain the decisions of such models to users is lacking behind and is considered an accessory in large-scale benchmarks, despite being a crucial requirement for the correct deployment of automated tools for content moderation. We attribute the issue to the reliance on qualitative comparisons and the lack of established metrics. We describe a simple set of metrics to evaluate the visual quality and informativeness of explanations of video DeepFake classifiers from a human-centric perspective. With these metrics, we compare common approaches to improve explanation quality and discuss their effect on both classification and explanation performance on the recent DFDC and DFD datasets.
