Frequently Asked Questions

Video enhancement is not a one-size-fits-all process, so it’s essential to pinpoint what’s wrong with a video to find the right solution. You aim to get the clearest, sharpest resolution possible for your clip or evoke a visual message. Tinker with the slider on some of these video properties:
  • Brightness controls the bright/white parts of the image.
  • Contrast adjusts the dark/black parts of the image.
  • Saturation sets the vibrancy of the colors.
  • Tint gives the video a hue of the selected color.

    Yes, but there are limitations. Adjust brightness, contrast, and saturation to improve dark and dull videos. You can also modify its vibrance (colors), highlights (white points), or shadows (dark points) to see how it registers onscreen. Some cases like excessive blurry spots, pixelation, and shakiness might need high-grade video enhancers or even a reshoot. Always remember to film with the right equipment to get high-quality raw footage. Luckily, most modern smartphones take good-quality videos!

    First and foremost, it is to improve the visual appearance of the video whenever there is poor lighting, dull colors, noise, grain, or loss of details. But also, video enhancement is a narrative device in the creative world. Clever use of colors, lights, and contrast can transform a video and how the audience watches it. Even simple changes can have a significant impact on the final output. Our video editor lets you enhance your videos online for free with beginner-friendly sliders that simultaneously preview the effect on your clips.
