​@@sspotter1978 I work in cinematography on major motion pictures and network television - I'm a camera assistant. So I'm the technician who configures whatever lenses, filters etc my camera operator is calling for on a given shot. I'm also the person who calls the scene and take number and claps the slate. I can tell you that we do in fact use Vaseline at times. However, Vaseline is so heavy, I've personally only seen it used in scenes that were deliberately portraying something dream-like, because the end result will look heavy-handed. However, in our set of filters, we always have a couple of filters labeled specifically for our lead actresses. So you guys are correct on the concept. The female performers are more heavily filtered than the male performers. This becomes even more pronounced the older the actress is. The director of photography really wants to blur lines and wrinkles. What some DPs use for actresses is actually not cheesecloth, it's varying guages of nylons stretched across a frame and we call them "nets." P.s. I happen to be a woman myself, so it's not lost on me the differences between how we photograph women and men. But many actresses will insist on being heavily filtered or shot from particular angles. Just demonstrates how much pressure they know they are under to maintain an illusion of perfection.

Also, plastic surgery was VERY common in old Hollywood. Not to mention wigs for men AND woman, only being photographed from certain angles and under specific lighting, heavy makeup, custom costumes, shapewear (for men AND woman, again), and other treatments like skin bleaching, plucking hairlines, and many, many others. Rita Hayworth (born Margarita Cansino) was forced to change her appearance. She was of Roma and Irish American descent (her father was Spanish Roma). She was always utterly stunning and you can look up pictures of her before her “Hollywood makeover”. However, some of her features were deemed too “ethnic”. She went through painful electrolysis to heighten her hairline and her dark hair was dyed light red. Because of her Irish heritage, her skin was deemed “light enough” to not “need” skin bleaching. Luckily, she was able to bring her father’s heritage into her dancing. Marilyn Monroe had at least one nose job (likely two), a chin implant later in her career, had her hairline plucked, her naturally very curly, chestnut hair bleached and styled, and, of course, used very specific makeup techniques to create different illusions. She also practiced every movement, gesture, and facial expression over and over until she felt satisfied. All of this AND photo editing. None of this stuff is new. There has never been “good old days of natural beauty”. People have been changing their appearances to follow beauty standards since the beginning of time. Paintings were even painted in very specific styles and according to what the client/patron wanted (unless the painter was painting lower class slice of life stuff, but even then, they’d take creative liberties). History constantly repeats itself. P.s. Thank you to @baintreachas for more accurate information on Rita Hayworth’s heritage. I’ve edited this post to reflect what I learned. Their comment is worth a read!

So glad someone made a video about this. I studied film and another thing too is that the legitimate film was literally cut and placed to make movies. Hence why it's called cutting when editing. They also used coloured pencils to colour in the strips of film before showing it. Which is why you can find some film that is not entirely black and white, but only the important things are coloured.

I have a beautiful portrait of my great-grandma where her face has that slightly blurry look. I think they may have straightened her nose as well, bc I also have a candid snapshot of her and my great-grandfather right before he deployed and she has more my nose lol.

Going even FURTHER back, painting portraits of people more flattering than they looked was also EXPECTED. I mean, getting your portrait done is expensive, and you may only have it done ONCE in your WHOLE LIFE, ONE picture to show your ancestors what you looked like. It was a given that if you had a rough night's sleep, they probably wouldn't paint in your dark circles, or your acne, or scarring, or stray hairs. And if you were painting someone wealthy, your reputation to draw them beautiful might be on the line.

I took photography classes when I was in art school 15 years ago, and it was so cool because we made a camera from a shoes box and we could develop our photographs in dark room etc. As graphic design students first thing we did was try to "photoshop" them. That's when we understood that photo editing was born the same day photography was.

Playboy airbrushed genitals for decades to make everyone look like an "innie" which created unrealistic expectations for men (as in, knew guys who called out girls for being hos because of lips shape, which is not related).

THIS! And the tools in Photoshop are literally named after the tools for retouching film photos

This is insane!!! I never knew this

I have over 12,000 antique glass negatives and there is a lot of retouching of mostly faces, but other areas of the photo as well. Fly away hairs and some clothing included. Sometimes it’s so heavy on the faces it requires a lot to clean it up. Freckles are a big thing that was removed as they were not seen as being attractive.

Totally true! I used to be a dye spotter during the 80s. I worked for a national random house that corrected portraits, magazines shots and yes even miss america.

Nah but you can literally see the original waist under the pencil marks on that last one 😭

Edited or not, you're insanely gorgeous lol

These facts are frightening😳

The difference is now literally every human with internet access had the ability to use Photoshop, while back then, you were lucky if you had a camera, let alone a guy who knew how to properly retouch those pictures during the 100% manual developing and processing phase. Photoshop back then was a god damned career.

It's not about the people that retouche though. The remarks are basically, ya'll just ugly today and need photoshop, women back then were naturally beautiful (I exagerrated, but you get the idea). And she showed, nope, they had the same "flaws" and were also retouched. Men in general often have no clue what they talk about. A male friend back in the day when Michelle Pfeiffer was at her peak showed at one of her posters he hung up and said that he has a crush on her because she doesn't need make up, she's naturally beautiful. Us girls just looked at each other, burst out laughing and then explained natural make up to him pointing at all the clues.

Of course in the West every middle class person could afford more. P.S. Anyone doing photos at home could also manipulate negatives, there's so much technique for that.

I just assumed it was the fuzzy look old photographs had that worked like a built in skin filter, I’ve never heard of this method of editing before but it’s so cool to learn about

Wow! I had no idea! Thank you for the info ❤

Lol I had done the same thing on a b/w image. I used to also scan negatives and digitize them. Created a masking layer to add texture to the layer so that I could color it. Blend it and smoothen out the textured layer. Knowing color theory was essential.

what definitely has changed is the ease of and actual access to editing. Many if not most phone cameras do it automatically, even for amateurs doing selfies or event/family snaps ( amateurs=people who don't earn their living from how they appear to look on photos). Meanwhile if the same "amateurs" took those kinds of pictures in the 80's or 90's basically 0% would have been edited let alone to the the detail that todays automatic processing can. Kinda apples and oranges here, so it's a scewed analogy. Like saying "In the 40's there were already cars with power windows, just like today, nothing has changed really" whilst ignoring that having a technology and the same being so affordable that it is now hard to find one without it is a big difference. To me what's more important than wether it exists or not, is who can and does use it and to what end. In the end yeah, it's interesting, but I think what many people are expressing when they complain about "too much editing" is the fact that now that basically everybody has the means to edit, no longer is it the rich elites of hollywood and glam magazines that build false expectations of how people (especially women) should look, but now it's pretty much everybody that does it to themselves/each other. It's self destructive either way, but sadly our brains are just wired to make us want to conform to beauty standarts no matter how unattainable or irrational they might be.

your point is valid, but hers is valid, too - women and girls compare themselves to the beauty relative perfection of these edited images, and not with reality.

Ease of access today AND the fact that we are consuming So Many More Images does make this effect more surround-sound, but her point is that unrealistic perfection (that women are led to believe is just natural beauty, and therefore try to achieve in the mirror) has been around as long as images have. Whether it's on instagram or on the big screen, women are comparing themselves to these photoshopped images, not to the normal person standing next to them in line at the grocery store. It's not apples and oranges, it's a matter of degree - but you're right that the issue has gotten way more severe as the tech is now available to essentially everyone on earth.

I’m so glad I took film photography as. Teenager and learned this editing style. I don’t think I’d survive without knowing photos are just models of real life.

What feels sadder is when someone puts themselves through all that to conform but, ultimately, get rejected because they look fake.

This is true. Part of my diploma was photography and we used to use different techniques like filling in negatives and using motion to blur out details during the actual processing.

When I was a teenager I remember having a conversation with my grandmother about beauty and I mentioned to her how beautiful her skin looked when she was my age and I was jealous of that. That's when she dropped this bomb on me, that she did in fact have many blemishes on her skin and all her photos from when she was young were edited in this way. It was a common practice, that's why in old photos everyone has flawless skin.

And even in the time of the painted portrait you would have the artist embellishing the beauty of the subject which is why francisco de goya was so controversial because he would draw the spanish royal family looking exactly as they are

You have the best Marilyn Monroe makeup everrr 💄 ❤

That's why they have so smooth skin 💀

My teacher that taught us said "people change but not their problems and habits"

Anyone old enough to remember the transition to HD TVs will remember the reactions of some people realising the people on tv werent as attractive as they seemed before. Old technology provided a built-in filter due to its lower quality. People forget that when they're looking at old videos or photos, they forget that all the little imperfections of real people were getting washed out

This is so interesting! This is a subject I've often wondered about but never really looked into! Today I learned!! Thank you

My grandmother had a photo like this. She was never a bad looking sort of person, but she never had a "perfectly flawless" look about her either. I still like this photo of her. I feel she took it cause she adored the girls in the moving pictures, and she really does look like one of them from the 1930's.

My great-grandmother’s job was retouching photos using grey paint.

This reminded me of the time I saw my grampa color in a flower with pink to make the color pop ❤

You look Marvelous!

I genuinely laughed my ass off. I'm so happy to know the "old" and "natural" beauty is the same as a clean girl look + filter + angle of nowadays, it has always been like this and I love that for us, ✨️shapeshifters unite✨️ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I agree with you, I think that the main issue today is that ease of digital editing making not only easier, but faster and accesible to a mass population, and in that population even a 12 year old girl can edit their face to a "better" face without realizing creating image issues than can be not only dangerous but lasting. Just triying to add a broader perspective to the message of the short, I liked, very informative 👍🏾

Amd regarding the smaller waists, that was also partly an illusion. They had their version of a butt pad or BBL. Just add padding to the hips or wear a hoop skirt. All of a sudden it's a tiny waist! Lol

Thanks for enlightenment ❤

I think when people say that, they're talking about the girl down the street, not the Hollywood actress who you know has an army of makeup artists anyway. Easy access to image editing + the prevalence of social media and dating apps is a devastating combination for everyone involved.
