How to remaster an old intro you still use
Upload the intro you have been using and tell Vizard Agent this is a restoration rather than a replacement. Vizard Agent studies it frame by frame, measures where the picture fails, isolates and removes the parts that are out of date, and rebuilds it at a higher standard without inventing a different intro.
What do you type into Vizard Agent?
Say restoration explicitly, and name what has to stay. Otherwise Vizard Agent will build you a better intro, which is a reasonable reading of the request and destroys exactly the recognition that made the old one worth keeping. Say what is out of date too: names, dates, old branding.
Prompt
What does Vizard Agent actually do?
An intro that has run for years carries recognition you can't buy, plus a name that left, a date that passed and the resolution it was made at. Remastering keeps the first and fixes the rest, working from the file still in use. Removing an outdated name means isolating its pixels rather than covering it over. In the session behind this article it:
- Downloaded and probed the original intro, 3840x2160 at 30fps and 46.8 seconds long, and reviewed frames sampled across it second by second.
- Measured the brightness over time to find where the picture went black, then zoomed in on the opening shot frame by frame to pinpoint where it failed.
- Cropped the band with the outdated name at full resolution, measured the text's exact bounding box and isolated its white pixels.
- Tested the removal on sample frames, debugged why some frames found no text and re-tested.
- Refined the removal with alpha un-compositing and reviewed the before and after.
When does this not work well?
Restoration can only work with what the original file contains, and some things are simply not there for Vizard Agent to recover. Upscaling helps but doesn't add detail, heavy old compression limits everything after it, and text baked in over motion is the difficult case to separate. If nothing about the old intro is recognisable enough to protect, start again instead.
Common questions
Do I need the original project file? No. Vizard Agent restores from the video you are still using.
Will it look like the same intro? Yes, and that is the requirement. Vizard Agent restores rather than reinterprets.
Can it raise the resolution? Vizard Agent can upscale it, though upscaling doesn't add detail that was never captured.
