A peaceful drive through the San Fernando Valley in California in the 1940's. And a trip to the beach during the same time. See and feel the sights and sounds of that time period. Color and sound ended.

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.
