Project Description
Upscale and enhance a 480p music video to 1080p
I’ve got an older 480p widescreen music video (3 minutes 25 seconds) that I want to upgrade for YouTube. Short sample attached.
The goal is simple: improve clarity and overall presentation while keeping it looking natural and true to the original. It’s fast-paced and energetic, so it’s important that nothing interferes with the motion or feel.
What I’m looking for:
– Upscale to 1080p (1920x1080)
– Light enhancement (noise reduction, mild sharpening if needed)
– Keep everything smooth and natural (no motion effects or artificial look)
– No editing, cutting, or adding text — just a clean visual upgrade
Style direction:
I don’t want an over-processed or “AI” look. If in doubt, keep it softer and more natural.
Before doing the full video, I’d like a 10–15 second sample clip using a section with movement so I can check the quality.
Final delivery:
– 1080p video, ready for YouTube (.mp4)
If you’ve worked with tools like Topaz Video AI or similar, that’s ideal, but not essential.
Please include an example of similar work if you have it.
Open to reasonable offers.
Message me for further details, or questions.
ADDED IMPORTANT POINT;
One important note based on early samples:
The video has a mix of different scenes and visual styles, so a single blanket setting across the whole video doesn’t work well.
I’m looking for someone who can adjust the enhancement based on the scene where needed (for example, different settings for darker vs brighter sections, or more detailed vs simpler shots).
It doesn’t need to be overcomplicated, but the final result should feel consistent and balanced across the whole video, not like one filter applied to everything.
If your process is fully automated with one preset, this probably isn’t the right fit.
