Nuova risoluzione per i video di Off The Wall
Risoluzione migliorata per gli short films di Off The Wall su You Tube.
As you may recall, the Estate and Sony Music announced at Michael Jackson’s birthday celebration last year, the release of Off The Wall on audiophile vinyl and SACD. That release will happen this Friday (1/17) and, in conjunction therewith, the Estate and Sony Music worked to create an upscaled version of each of the 3 short films associated with that album which will become viewable on Michael Jackson’s YouTube channel over the coming weeks – with the first of those short films, “Rock With You”, coming this week.
Before you watch the upscaled versions, the Estate wanted to make sure you understand that these are NOT 4K.
Unfortunately, the low quality original source material did not make a true 4K version possible; there are serious limitations on what could be achieved, especially with the type of effects that had been used on each of the original short films.
After testing various available technology, a decision was made on which technology offered the best option and that was used to enhance each of the short films to the extent possible. While not true 4K, we hope that you will appreciate the upscaling that the Estate and Sony Music have been able to do on these short films.
Thank you for your support of Michael Jackson’s legacy and we hope you enjoy the upscaled Off The Wall short films.
