Original Clout conventional resize baseline

The input is our original silent eight-second Remotion cafe title card.

Create the deliberately smaller source:
ffmpeg -i motion-morning-reset.mp4 -vf scale=360:450:flags=lanczos:in_range=pc:out_range=tv,format=yuv420p -an -c:v libx264 -profile:v baseline -crf 28 -movflags +faststart upscale-review-source.mp4

Resize the reduced file conventionally:
ffmpeg -i upscale-review-source.mp4 -vf scale=720:900:flags=lanczos,format=yuv420p -an -c:v libx264 -profile:v baseline -crf 20 -movflags +faststart upscale-review-lanczos.mp4

Both files are eight seconds, H264 MP4, with no audio. The second file has twice the width and height, hence four times the pixels per frame. The second encode has a different CRF, so this pair is a practical resize-and-export baseline, not an isolated compression-quality experiment or AI benchmark.

The resize does not recover the high-resolution design information removed by the first reduction. Review the title entrance, settled cup and subtitle, and final fade at the same display size. A larger file is not proof of improved detail.

No FLUX, Topaz, ByteDance or other AI upscaler was used. The comparison tool can also inspect your own browser-readable source and processed clips locally. Its media-time alignment is approximate, not frame-accurate.
