Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a little success story using HitPaw VikPea that truly surprised me.
A few weeks ago, I dug out our wedding video from 12 years ago. Unfortunately, most of the footage looked soft, especially during emotional moments—our faces were either out of focus or blurred due to the low resolution and lighting back then.
Since I’ve been exploring AI tools lately, I decided to give HitPaw VikPea a try, especially its Portrait Restoration model.
What I did:
-
Imported the full video into VikPea
-
Selected the “Portrait Restoration Model” (specifically designed for facial enhancement)
-
Let the AI analyze and process—it was surprisingly quick
-
Exported the final version in 4K MP4
Results:
-
Facial details were impressively enhanced—my spouse’s expression during the vows brought me to tears again
-
Skin tones looked natural, not overly smoothed like some other tools I tried
-
The whole video now feels like it was shot with a modern camera
-
No need for complicated editing skills—just a few clicks
Format & Speed:
-
Supported my old MOV format
-
Processed a 3-minute clip in under 10 minutes
-
Exported in MP4, full 4K

I highly recommend it if you want to breathe new life into old wedding or family videos. Feel free to ask me anything if you’re curious about the process!
