I agree, but I kinda expected it since it already had a kind of filter on it, of course upscaling that simply would make it worse.i think who is it got it the worst so far
For anyone who wants to watch and comment here...Who Is It is now available in AI 4K Upscale on YouTube with a max resolution of 3840x1744
I just wanted to ask a few questions to the directors of MJ's short films, but unfortunately some have already passed away and it's no longer possible.I think “Who Is It” almost works because the AI glossing and artifacts add to the dreamy, unnatural visuals they were aiming for.
Still looks horrid, but… it’s something, I guess.

Exactly. Forget upscaling. Go away and do some stuff like recording commentaries. The sirt of thing they won't be able to do in 2030.I just wanted to ask a few questions to the directors of MJ's short films, but unfortunately some have already passed away and it's no longer possible.
Unfortunately this upscale makes the Ecasanova appearances stand out more, and any proper restoration would do an even better job
Oh good lord, the screenshots were kind.For anyone who wants to watch and comment here...
I think a deepfake would be in order for a proper restoration.Unfortunately this upscale makes the Ecasanova appearances stand out more, and any proper restoration would do an even better job
Are you serious? Why the hell would you do a deepfake on this? A proper restoration would be them scanning the 35mm film to 4k.I think a deepfake would be in order for a proper restoration.
Because Michael abandoned the film halfway through, this is something MJ didn’t want out. This is by definition an unfinished project finished with an impersonator-Are you serious? Why the hell would you do a deepfake on this? A proper restoration would be them scanning the 35mm film to 4k.
So you’re saying there’s a precedent for this kind of thing.Because Michael abandoned the film halfway through, this is something MJ didn’t want out. This is by definition an unfinished project finished with an impersonator-
Hey wait a minute this is familiar
Exactly my point, though if deepfaking Michael onto Casanova is the best solution I'm not sure they should bother restoring it at allBecause Michael abandoned the film halfway through, this is something MJ didn’t want out. This is by definition an unfinished project finished with an impersonator-
Hey wait a minute this is familiar
I mean it would prob be something that would need to be discussed with Fincher, since it was his baby after Michael abandoned the project.Exactly my point, though if deepfaking Michael onto Casanova is the best solution I'm not sure they should bother restoring it at all
The saving grace has always been the soft layer of haze that Fincher put over the whole film, disguising Ecasanova's face just enough so that it's not too distracting. Not sure how they'd accomplish that after restoration
Why did Michael abandon the project in seriousness. I thought the E’Casanova thing was a joke.I mean it would prob be something that would need to be discussed with Fincher, since it was his baby after Michael abandoned the project.
Because of the video being about an abused call girl, Michael didn't want to be associated with such a dark topic.Why did Michael abandon the project in seriousness. I thought the E’Casanova thing was a joke.
I mean the whole era of this song as a single was kind of mishandled. Between that and Give in to Me.
You know. It is a pretty extreme topic when you really get to it. Like the opposite end of Smooth Criminals cartoon violence.Because of the video being about an abused call girl, Michael didn't want to be associated with such a dark topic.
