- 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.

I wanna cry watching such old videos... it's like to touch the history, to feel a breath of the past! Marvellous ❤
Verdade tão lindo, da mesmo vontade de chorar, que incrível, saber que essas pessoas já morreram como a vida passa 😢
120 years ago, WOW.
Hard working women. You'll never be forgotten.
I always get chils when it transitions back into the black and white .
I can’t even imagine working on a computer with all those layers of clothing that they had to wear. Those girls were badass!
Oui c'est sûr. Elles étaient moins fainéantes que les jeunes d'aujourd'hui! 🙄
From what I’ve read, a lot of those layers were made out of cotton or linen so they were light. I always wonder how they kept cool in the mining towns down in Arizona in the summer. How did anyone survive over 100 degree weather for weeks on end?
And probably a corset 😮
@@HildaTwhich isnt even bad. The whole tight lacing thing is pretty much a myth except some rare examples. You can do pretty much anything in a corset
They seem perfectly content.
I never cease to be amazed by current technologies 📽️🎞️......,📹📼.....📱💻....
I love the hairdos from back then. Great job you've done on the restoration!
Right! I was thinking the same thing. Loving the hairdos. 😊
God bless them all. RIP
That hair!
I’ve been watching your videos, and I think what really makes them unique is the added soundtrack. It’s natural and realistic, not dubbed in music. Good stuff!
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!
the fake sound track has women chatting and talking but no one in the movie is talking at all
I love these videos so much! People look so beautiful, dutiful and appropriate in them it's almost alien.
A living time capsule. Absolutely breathtaking work to recapture an ordinary moment and make it immortal. A typical woman represented here would have had a child, who would have had a child, who would have had a child, who would have had a child, who would have had a child that is now having a child.
I am age 72 and only recently retired. When this was made, my grandmother whom I knew well was a newly graduated nurse. Within a couple years she would marry a Mr John Gibson and became a Gibson Girl. My mother was born in 1923.
It was not so long ago.
I’m 63, and my 4th great maternal grandfather was born in 1762. My mother was born in 1923. Maybe we aren’t typical, but every family is different.
_In 120 years there will be curious people watching us on a screen and reading what we now type._
No, there will not. And, if so, they are wasting their time.
_I don't agree, they will be intested to find out what happened in the past watching images on a screen and reading, as many of us like to do nowadays._
That thought always weirds me out!!! Though it’s likely that there will be so many upgrades to technology people could use at that time to do something similar to what was done here? The most futuristic I could think of at this point would be some kind of AI 3D experience of the videos we’re posting now?
_All those people who appear in the video could not imagine that in the distant future we would be able to see them, at that moment when they were being filmed it would be unimaginable for them, however, we have the privilege of observing their gestures, their laughter and even their serious faces._
_In 120 years the same thing will happen, it is not at all strange that there will be people who will want to know, to investigate, how we dressed, what our gestures were and how we related to other people. It will not be a waste of time for them, just as it is not a waste of time for us, it will always be a pleasure, everyone has their own distractions, which the rest of us might consider boring or a waste of time, but that's life._
_It is clear that technology will be much more advanced than it is today to do that._
I love these restoration videos with the sound effects
I doubt it. They are probably not allowed to talk and laugh.
Really cool to see the transition back to the original footage at the end
“Women worked before! They just stayed at home with their babies!”
Women in 1904:
Watching these remastered videos of the past is the closest thing we have to a time machine, unless of course area 51 is hiding something.
👀 A truly proper pompadour & bowtie 👀
The ladies were so lovely!❤
Lovely just lovely !! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
This is amazing. Thank you.
I love these time machines.
Thank you so much for this video
A fascinating film - Ty.
Reminds me of my movie town. 🎥🎥🎥
*Imagine you watching this video and maybe it's your grandma or aunty or a distance relative over theeerree!* 😅😉
mine were in europe and south america
excellent restoration although my preference is a little less for color saturation, I am a fan of restoration, thank you for reading my message
must have been so tedious (wonder how long it took them to do their hair)
And, they are all dead and we re watching them like it happened yesterday...it's crazy !
I really love this so beautiful 💝🙏
Keeping their hair like that, prevents them from accidents.
We pay a fortune for those original light shades these days
I know that a lot of peoples complain that these ladies were having a tough life but i can bet that for them it was so much better to work in a factory at that time rather than on the fields.
Making electrical windings? Jobs were quite a boon for women. Bet they all dressed up for the recording.
Probably their regular clothes
Looks like uniforms.
yeah, they are dressed up like movie stars
no one wears suits to a factory job, or puffy dresses and scarves that get caught in the machinery
Uh no. There are tons of still photographs out there of this period and they all dressed up like that.
In 120 years what kind of technology do you think could be use to transform our current videos like this? It’s likely that there will be so many upgrades to technology people could use at that time to do something similar to what was done here? The most futuristic I could think of at this point would be some kind of AI 3D experience of the videos we’re posting now?
Neat!
Beautiful restauration work!!!
Wonderful. They all look so happy
.....morphine.
For the camera
they do? lol what are you watching?
All the stations are full, no one called in sick.
how or where do you find these?
❤
I would think the machines made more noise than the reenactment sound, overall, but clearly they were talking to each other without much effort. I suppose they were making some sort of wires.
there was no sound track, the sound you hear is fake overdubbed
where do you see any of the women talking?!
this is how they will be watching us in 2124
👏💗👏
Wow, they all have the same hairdos.
it's kinda creepy
En que trabajan ?
From color to black and white to fade to black great just like life.
When "Spooler" was a job title
Lady in the front is making a splice.
Thanks!
🙏 thank you
What are they making
What activity are these women performing?
Can someone explain to me what they’re doing?
Страшно даже подумать, сколько сил и времени они тратили на уход за такими волосами! Вымыть, высушить и уложить, и это без шампуня и фена для волос!
Lo que son las modas, por muy laboriosas incluso poco atractivas que fueran ....todas la seguían 😮
@@bosquedehayas1889 I understand that)) but when I try to transfer this beautiful historical video to our world..
it makes me understand the depth of the deepest HOLE of that time...
why was my comment deleted? too heavily edited and for no reason, i said nothing wrong
Ppl did not have problems with hair lose 😂😂
hair loss*
they look like FLDS
Notice, they're actually working and not standing around gossiping and smoking cigarettes. The work environment seems organized and maintained well.
they're in a freaking factory.
do you think there was time to do such things openly? did you not see that man making the rounds?
So they generally all had red hair. Weird.
Rock hard sears, bending over all day. No ergonomics there!
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.
Fake soundtrack is disorienting. And some idiot will claim the sounds are real.
The look like Brethren religion.
Back to work...or you all will be out on your ear...and the first one who finds the golden ticket..will receive a one pound pay bonus...
1904
Usa. The progressive era
Uk. The edwardian era. The gilded age
The term “gilded age” was coined by Mark Twain in a book set in America talking about the American society at the time.
This time is just known as the late Victorian to Edwardian period in the UK
Gibson girls.
Tiens mais on nous a vendu que les femmes ont dû attendre le féminisme pour avoir le droit d'être les égales des hommes et d'avoir le bonheur de pouvoir travailler à l'usine. Nous aurait-on menti ? 😉
shhhhh
Happiness in works 14-16 hours at day, with a lower wage than man, etc?
A video of barely 1:30 minutes it's only like an equivalent of a TV spot, but for the cinema.
@@CBOANDALUCIA I don't see anyone getting dirty, doing heavy lifting or risking life and limb every minute. So yeah, a lower wage.
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 grandparents probably looked after the kids
No, the industrial revolution was in full force in the 1840's by the 1880's there gave now childcare and laws starting to be enacted to determine the times of work, minimum wages and workers' benefits.
I don't see no black women 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The work rooms were probably segregated
@@haroldcampbell3337 no...
