Smile - Judy Garland - The Judy Garland Show 1963 - Colorized 4K 60FPS

Smile - Judy Garland - 1963 - Colour - 4K. Restored from the black and white video from 1963. Ive spent quite some time restoring this video its one of my favourites. Its restored from a capture of the TV episode in 1963 downloaded from YouTube so there are limits of what to expect. With the low bit rate the trade off with upscaling was going to be a loss of detail. The process involved expanding the video into individual frames and resizing the frames to 8k so I have some wiggle room detail wise. I wanted to get every little detail that I could from the low bitrate video. Then I created PS App Droplet to automatically edit and adjust each frame based on my edits to one frame. Then it automatically output the adjusted frames to my hard drive. After this I imported the image sequence and recompiled the video using the same technique as animation. From there I cropped the 8k video to 4k 16:9 which should pinch in the details and make it look a little better at that resolution. In the end I hope that I have something that stirs more vivid memories of the great actor and singer Judy Garland.,
