Prism Remasters

The evolution of digital media has significantly raised audience expectations for video quality. High-definition remastered music videos not only meet these expectations but also unlock new revenue streams by appealing to both existing fans and new audiences. By presenting a catalogue that matches today's viewing standards, artists and record labels can rejuvenate their classics, ensuring they remain relevant and engaging in the digital age.

Remastering isn't merely about enhancing visuals; it's an intricate process of preserving the artist's original vision while adapting it for modern platforms. Unlike the unpredictable outcomes of AI upscaling, handcrafted remastering ensures each scene is treated with the respect it deserves, adhering closely to the director's intended aesthetic. By choosing a meticulous, scene-by-scene approach, we safeguard the legacy and bring classic performances to life for a new generation of viewers. 📽 Check out this gorgeous 4K remaster of Pearl Jam - Jeremy https://lnkd.in/ebCfqpF5 Got a project in mind?

Is your catalog performing as well as it could on YouTube? If your video catalog consists of uploads from 10+ years ago, then probably not. Your potential audience is watching videos in 1080P and 4K, with a range of aspect ratios to suit their content. Why would they stick around to watch something in 480p? YouTube's encoding technology has also come a long way—we should be presenting our artists' work in the best possible light. Take this very famous video, for example. It has been upscaled rather than remastered. The widescreen formatting has created pillar boxing on either side - it was intended to be in a 4:3 aspect ratio: https://lnkd.in/dUwBPQd That's where Prism comes in—to preserve the world's greatest music video catalogs, optimizing them for a new audience.

Why we never use AI to upgrade (with shocking examples below). Cheap video upscaling using #AI will soon be flooding the market. At first glance, you might think it looks improved. But on closer inspection, you'll see a waxy, discoloured image, with a jarred frame rate and poor formatting (squashed image). The results are nasty and soon, the YouTube alogorhitms will agree and punish this shortcutting practice. Check out this glaring upscale: https://lnkd.in/ebTA5zNy Do artists and fans derserve better? We think so. Visit us for info on how we can get the absolute best from your music video catalogue: www.prismremasters.com #AIupscale #Videoremaster #musiccatalogue

Finding the right format to remaster from can mean the difference between a stunning 4K remaster and an HD/1080p remaster.
