See it in action

A quick walkthrough: the original photo, the restored result, and a short video showing it brought to life.

Original

This is the orignal photo taken with an iPhone 6 many years ago. It's been copied and altered tons of times. The colours are good but if you click the image and look closely, you'll see that it is really quite blurry and really not that good.

Restored

If you click the image and have a look, you'll it is much shaper than the original. This has been processed once under the "Restore" setting. The colour did fade a bit, and that could be fixed, but for now just leave it be because the image is still much better than the previous. Not perfect, but much better. This is the image to animate, not the blurry original.

Video

Here is the finished product. The clip is exactly what I was hoping for and then some. We only have 5 to 10 seconds so they have to count and I think the AI did a remarkable job here.

More examples

A few more before/after examples with notes on each.

What we started with.

This is an iphone photo of an old, fuzzy picture. Pretty much anything that can be bad, is bad. Don't panic.

Don't rush it!

This is what happens when you try to colorize a black and white photo right off the bat. The colours are nice for some reason it looks like she has a partial pair of glasses on and the boy's feet are all mangled. This is what happens when you rush the AI to save a credit or two.

Much better!

This is what the original image looks like after going through the "Restore" setting. Note, the woman's glasses are gone and the boy's feet are not mangled up, in fact it all looks perfect. This is the image to add colour to, not the original beat up as we saw above.

Sometimes I can't believe how awesome this works!

I'm not a photo-snob but I know a nice picture when I see it and that is what we have here. The details are amazing, the colours are great, you can almost hear the kid crying. Note that the colours vary from shot to shot but that is just the AI guessing. If you know what colour a certain item was, you can adjust for that but really, this is probably close enough for most people.
