Driving from LA to Las Vegas 1950s in COLOR w/Sound
A nice drive from LA to Las Vegas around 1957. A great view of the road, the mountains and some small towns along the way. And of course arriving in Las Vegas at night along with some day shots.
Video/Film Restoration Efforts:
* Originally shot on Film
* Converted to video
* Converted to 60 frames per second
* Colorized using computer software
* Sound added for effect only
* Color correction stabilization performed
* Historical data added just for nostalgia
Software Used
I use a variety of editing software from Final Cut Pro X, Adobe Premiere, Avid to Edius. It depends on the project.
Be aware that video restoration efforts are not always accurate. Colorization of video/film is complex. Artificial Intelligence Tools (AI) or computer software is only as good as the algorithms designed to understand the colors. Colorization is ambiguous since we are trying to go from grayscale to a 3-D signal created around mixtures of red, green and blue. So while it may not be perfectly and historically accurate, it has come a long way over the years. So try and enjoy the efforts to colorize the past as best as we can.

    wow, a 2 lane road, the drive must have taken 8 hours back then. amazing thing is that it still looks like this today, bigger highway but same run-down, burn out, abandoned shack houses out in the middle of nowhere. what is with the soundtrack of gunfire in the background? when in Vegas go see the Neon museum, a few of those signs INCLUDING the Flamingo sign are all there lit up. The Flamingo sign was created by a woman who also created that Flamingo font.
