It also introduces support for 16-bit colour depth and improves “colorspace support and color accuracy”. Workflow improvements include the option to run tasks in parallel, making it possible to export multiple projects simultaneously and a command-line interface, primarily for executing ffmpeg commmands. New capabilities include the option to stack multiple AI models – for example, to upscale and stabilise footage simultaneously – and a new ‘Apollo’ AI retiming model for generating super-slo-mo footage. New in version 3.0: stack AI models, run tasks in parallel, and export at 16-bit colour depthĪs well as giving it a new name, Video AI 3.0 rewrites the software “from the ground up” to improve its handling of variable frame rate footage, frame repeats, and scene changes. Unlike Gigapixel, Video AI doesn’t have a dedicated mode for CG imagery, but it does upscale video footage to up to 8K, opening up the possibility of similar workflows for CG animation. Many visualisation artists use its still-image counterpart, Gigapixel AI, to upscale low-res 3D renders, making it possible to generate hi-res images more quickly than simply rendering at full resolution. While its main role is in video production, particularly to make poor-quality footage suitable for broadcast, or to upres old material for modern higher-resolution displays, it also has potential uses in CG work.
Originally released in 2020, and previously known as Video Enhance AI, Video AI is an AI-trained tool capable of a range of video-processing tasks, including upresing, retiming and stabilising footage. (Full disclosure: the software was actually released last month, but we haven’t seen much coverage of it outside of general video production sites.)Īn AI-based tool for upresing video footage with potential applications to animation workflows The 3.0 release rewrites Video AI from the ground up, making it possible to apply multiple AI models simultaneously, and adding a new super-slo-mo AI model and support for 16-bit colour depth. Topaz Labs has released Video AI 3, the latest version of its AI-based software for upscaling, retiming and stabilising video, previously known as Video Enhance AI.
