Reviving Old Movies - See How AI Colorizes Black and White Movies

Duration: 0:07:17

In this episode of the "Full Name AI" podcast, the host Rain talks about the theme of reviving old movies. He highlights the importance of these movies, which may have poor image quality but still tell great stories. Rain also discusses the movie "They Shall Not Grow Old," which uses real footage from World War I to create a vivid and authentic portrayal of the war. The movie required a team to spend four years coloring and enhancing the black and white images, with over 1,000 reference photos taken on location. Reviving old movies is no easy feat and requires a lot of time, effort, and money.

AI supplementary frame - make the movie silky and smooth like hair

In this video, the topic is how to increase the frame rate of movies. Currently, most movies and TV shows are shot using 24 to 30 frames per second (fps), which is considered the standard. Our eyes can perceive up to 12 independent images per second, and the brain perceives anything above that as motion. Modern movies using 24 fps are smooth, but older movies shot at lower fps (e.g. 16) look sped up when played at 24 fps. To fix this, frames can be inserted in post-production or the footage can be re-shot.
