Female Factory Workers c.1904 - Footage HD Colorised w/sound

Описание: Time travel back to 1904 where a group factory girls are winding coils for Westinghouse Electric Factory in Pittsburgh. Colorization and sound design by Glamourdaze.

For vintage fashion lovers, note the Gibson Girls style aesthetic. Edwardian era trumpet skirts matched with pretty blouses and pompadour Gibson girl hair. The new s-bend corset allowed a little more freedom of movement. They look so elegant but it must have been a grueling days work.

How silent footage is colorized and brought to Life

I take early fragments of silent 16fps footage and restore them to life by a combination of manual frame by frame colorization as well as the use of deep exemplar-based video colorization techniques. The footage is upscaled and the original frame rate is interpolated from 16 frames, up to 60 frames per second. This gives a more life life look to the content.
Finally I produced a soundtrack which helps build a new immersive experience for the viewer. Together, these processes revive old fragments of footage, offering audiences a more
vivid and engaging glimpse of lives long since lived in the distant past.
The colorization process used Deep exemplar-based Video colorization.
