whyMultiModel
Two distinct generative-media models in sequence: Flux Kontext performs image-to-image restoration (colorization/enhancement) of a real historical photo, and Kling then performs image-to-video animation of the restored result. This differs from the baseline's fresh-generation keyframe-to-i2v pattern and from the baseline's ESRGAN+RIFE finishing chain because the source asset is a real degraded photograph being restored, not a freshly generated or already-clean keyframe, and no upscaler/interpolator is involved.
