Removing a Logo

In one of the shots, the logo on the jacket our actor is wearing is quite noticeable. Ideally, I would have preferred the jacket to be plain, but unfortunately, we didn't have an alternative option for him to wear. I was wondering if there might be a way to edit out the logo in post-production, as it could help minimize distractions and allow the audience to focus more on the script and the overall performance. 

Initially, I tried using the "Picsart AI Photo Editor" app, as it is designed for video editing. However, I couldn’t figure out how to remove the logo from the jacket. The app didn’t seem to offer any clear instructions or guidance on how to accomplish this task, which left me feeling a bit frustrated. After exploring the app’s features, I realized it wasn’t the right tool for this particular edit, so I decided to search for a more suitable app that could better meet my needs. 


Next, I gave the app "CutVibe: Video Object Eraser" a try. This app successfully removed the logo, and the result looked great at first glance. However, the downside was that the quality of the video in that shot noticeably deteriorated. It almost seemed like a strange filter had been applied, giving the footage an unnatural, altered look. To get a second opinion, I showed the edited video to my group, and everyone agreed that there was a clear difference in quality, compared to the rest of the footage. After discussing it, we came to the conclusion that it would be better to leave the logo visible in that shot rather than sacrifice the overall camera quality. Since the logo only appears in a single shot, we felt it wouldn’t detract too much from the result, and maintaining the video quality was more important.
