Bradford, England 1902 (New Version) in COLOR [60fps, Remastered + Sound Design]

Описание: I used a new colorization technique, fully restored, and created immersive sound design for this rare footage — Electric Tram Rides from Forster Square, Bradford (1902) — offering a vivid glimpse into Edwardian England. Through advanced restoration and colorization, this film brings to life the bustling streets of Bradford at the height of its industrial glory. Once a modest market town, Bradford had rapidly transformed into Britain’s wool capital — a city of grand architecture and energetic street life, though shadowed by pollution and hardship. Among the scenes, two Mitchell & Kenyon assistants can be seen directing pedestrians, while a group of elegantly dressed young women are asked to walk past the camera twice — a charming early example of staged filmmaking.

Mitchell & Kenyon was a British film production company founded in the late 19th century by brothers George Albert Mitchell and Charles Kenyon. They were primarily known for their documentary films, which captured a pivotal time in British history during the early 20th century.

The films produced by Mitchell & Kenyon provide a fascinating glimpse into everyday life, social events, and popular celebrations of the Edwardian era, covering a wide range of subjects such as fairs, football matches, parades, as well as street scenes and public events in cities like Blackburn, Manchester, and other industrial towns in northern England. These films were often shot in an impromptu style, capturing everyday life in an almost "documentary" manner, well before the era of newsreels and propaganda films.
