After Effects - Detail Preserving Upscale Tutorial
Original source date
Answer
The main intention behind this effect is to have the ability to upscale your video format while maintaining the same level of video details. In the video example, we have prepared a short 1080p video and will try to upscale it to 2k resolution without losing any details. Drag your footage into your composition, and you will notice it will not fit the canvas. If you need to change the final resolution of your composition, then right-click it and select the composition settings.
