Hi, I'm Leo Aquino from Angono Rizal, Philippines. I'm an artist and Web Frontend Developer with a deep love for history, especially restoring old footage from before World War 2. This passion was sparked by Peter Jackson's film "They Shall Not Grow Old," inspiring me to focus on pre-WWII restoration. Most historic films have been digitized with outdated equipment, leaving them wobbly, scratched, and noisy. With the right techniques like scaling, interpolation, and colorization, AI can revive these films. Manual editing is crucial for noise reduction and scratch removal. Though labor-intensive, often taking time to produce just 3 minutes of restored footage, the support of my followers keeps me motivated. I see this work as a service to my country, connecting the past and present.
