Introduction

This tutorial outlines how to create a high-quality video reupload, using the example of the popular "Ultimate Showdown" animated music video by Lemon Demon. This guide will help you understand the steps involved in enhancing video quality, adding captions, and giving credit to original creators.

Step 1: Obtain the Original Video

• Visit the original video source, which is hosted on Newgrounds.
• Download the original flash version of the animation. Ensure you have permission to use and modify the content.

Step 2: Enhance Video Quality

• Use video editing software capable of exporting in 4K resolution. Options include Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve.
• Import the original video's files into your editing software.
• Adjust the resolution settings to 4K. Use upscaling techniques if necessary to improve visual quality.
• Export the video, making sure to select a high-quality output format (e.g., MP4).

Step 3: Replace the Quality Track

• Identify the original audio track of the animation.
• If desired, replace it with a better quality audio track from the artist, Neil Cicierega (Lemon Demon).
• Ensure the audio track is synchronized properly with the video.

Step 4: Mask Out Unwanted Elements

• In your video editing software, locate any unwanted elements such as the 'subtitles' button.
• Use masking tools to remove these elements from the video. This will help create a cleaner viewing experience.

Step 5: Add Closed Captions

• Create closed captions for the video. You can manually transcribe the dialogue or use subtitle generation tools.
• Import the caption file (often in SRT format) into your video editing software.
• Sync the captions with the video timeline for accuracy.

Step 6: Credit Original Creators

• In the video description, provide proper credit to the original creators:
  • Link to Neil Cicierega's channel.
  • Link to the animation creator, Shawn Vulliez.
• Acknowledge that you are not the original creator and emphasize supporting the original artists.
