Why we like it

Motion Upscaler earns its place in the aescripts library by keeping upscaling local, with no subscriptions or tokens, while preserving alpha across PNG sequences.

What is Motion Upscaler?

Motion Upscaler is an AI-powered upscaling plugin for After Effects from Rezi Chemia. It raises the resolution of PNG sequences, including alpha mattes, along with multiple images and videos. Processing runs locally, with no subscriptions or tokens required.

The plugin provides three modes: Single/Sequence, Multi-Image and Video upscaling. You can choose 2×, 3× or 4× upscale factors, and the AI upscaling is optimized for 3D renders, anime, cartoon and motion graphics content. For PNG sequences, full alpha channel preservation keeps transparency intact.

It stands out in the aescripts library for pairing local AI upscaling with full alpha channel support for PNG sequences, and a demo video is available on the developer's page.
