1904: Real Life Factory Girls in Amazing Unseen Film 2

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

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.
The AI Film Restoration Process:
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.

    These videos, although it is real work, is not accurate depictions of true working conditions. Cameras especially footage was very expensive, so to film a promotional video for work, these women were most likely dressed to impress and lighter working conditions. Still a neat blast from the past though!

    Sad to think how many of the those ladies and girls had to hike those skirts on a daily basis to keep those positions. Excelllent work on the restoration, but there was nothing glamorous about factory life in 1904. I think Westinghouse would have at least had some form of childcare on site so they didn't have to have infants sitting under them while they worked. But in many factories of the time, babies would be in bundles under the workspace. These were not the good ole days, that is just historical revisionism to cover the brutal and terrible nature of the industrial revolution at that time.

    The Westinghouse company was Thomas Edison's company, they were very likely making coils for his electric substations as they quite often burned out due to his inferior ideas of power supply, his was a DC system and they overloaded all the time, he eventually brought on board Nikolai Tesla to basically steal his ideas, Tesla's system was AC and is what the world uses today. A large part of why women wore such long skirts back then was because of poor hygiene, it wasn't easy to keep clean like we take for granted today, the toilets were very basic and running water wasn't on tap like we know it. This is 1904 and most of them seem to be in their 20's, if you fast forward to 1964 they will all very likely be in their 80's and beyond, that's a lifetime ago in todays world, all of these women will have been born in the 187'0's/80's and yet they are here and vibrant in 2024 for us to see. The digital world we live in will not harvest images like these, we live too fast and discard everything, our life today will leave scarce images unless we actually print them off or put them safely on to recording media.
