American fashion film from 1917 with new AI enhanced clarity using AI Neural Network technology.
The First World War was in its third year, and thousands of American troops were on their way to the front.
Featuring dresses, hats and shoes designed by Lucille, also known as Lady Duff-Gordon.
Lucy Gordon was on the ill-fated Titanic when it floundered and sank in 1912.
She survived the experience, though faced criticism later when it was revealed her lifeboat had only 12 people aboard, seven of whom were male crew members.
With thanks to the work of Denis Shiryaev who inspired me to learn the craft of AI upscaling and motion interpolation.
The process:
1. Frame interpolation – from 15 fps to 60 fps, using Dain, a deep learning AI process.
2. Upscaled from 360p to 4K resolution using Topaz Gigapixel.
3. Colorized using Deoldify, an open source Colab application.
4. New soundtrack
