synthetically generated footage or not?

I am currently finalizing a composite video project within Adobe After Effects for platform distribution. The foundational asset (base plate) consists of synthetically generated footage derived from a generative AI video model, specifically depicting military maneuvers. However, I have subjected this footage to extensive post-processing and transformative editing, including the application of simulated night-vision thermal imaging overlays and substantial color grading to alter the visual fidelity. Given that the final output has been heavily stylized and deviates significantly from the raw generation, does this trigger the mandatory 'Altered or Synthetic Content' disclosure requirements during the upload process? Does the heavy editing negate the AI classification, or does the synthetic origin of the subject matter necessitate a label?

If any part of the final asset was created with an AI tool, you must declare it as AI regardless of what additional processing steps you applied to it.
