Hi. The featured person in the footage from 6:53-7:45 is Newton D Baker - the US Secretary of War. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_D._Baker. Looks like a kindly fellow! Love you stuff - there are loads of faces that were VERY famous at the time in your footage - and your enhancements make real people again to modern eyes. Cheers.

Amazing footage and remastering. I’m always curious as to the technical reason why vintage footage likes this always looks 5% faster, just enough to make the film look sped up, and why can’t we compensate to bring the film speed back down so that people move more naturally. I’m sure this is a frame rate issue and how it interlaces with digital technology?

@manin10 Жыл бұрын

I'm not sure but weren't the cameras hand would. So the speed probably depends on the experience on the cameraman??

@arnosgrove8345 7 ай бұрын

Silent film was shot at 16 frames per second whereas sound at 24 frames per second. Inevitably when silent film is screened at 24fps on a sound projector it will appear 50% faster than it should be.

It's so sad how life expectancy was so much lower in the olden days. If you got to your 40th birthday you were considered to be an irrelevant old waste of oxygen. I think it's because people were in such a hurry all the time - everyone walked so fast and sliced bread so quickly - and foghorns were always going off and giving people apoplexy.

I dont mean to seem unappreciative, because your restorative work is tremendous, but...why would you put so much effort into restoring this footage, only to retain the unatural FPS that gives old footage that "sped up" look? One must play this at .75 to get to anything approaching natural speed. It's really puzzling.....

@@modgodel I don't think the issue is the "inconvenience" of adjusting the speed on playback in KZfaq; that's certainly easy enough to do. The point that @mrlopez-pz7pu was making (and which I totally agree with) is that for all the meticulous detail that the editor put into these fantastic video remasters, this one little oversight really stands out. It really is amazing what a difference it makes to play them back at 75% speed.

Soldiers used to be paid a portion of the spoils of war. Then those in power who start but don’t fight in the wars, realised that they could incentivise the soldiers to commit murder with a little ribbon and a bit of metal pinned to the chest, much cheaper and those in power could keep all the spoils of war themselves. ……….. oh and boy, don’t forget to hand back your guns when you get back to Blighty, it wouldn’t be to have you and once he got home now with it?
