  • ► Fabulous Portraits of Classic Hollywood Beauties From 1910s & 1920s Silent Film Era by Albert Witzel, brought to life using AI technology.
    ► Hello everyone and welcome to History Scoop channel.
    Albert Witzel (25 Jun 1879 - 31 May 1929) was an American photographer who founded Witzel Studios in 1909 and quickly established himself as one of Los Angeles' most prestigious portrait studios. Distinguished by moody lighting and dramatic poses and settings, Witzel’s photos soon set the tone for Hollywood studio photography and from the mid-1910s they featured frequently in fan magazines like Photoplay, becoming an important promotional and publicity tool. He photographed many celebrities including Lillian Gish, Clara Bow, Melva Cornell, Bessie Love, Doris May, as well as occasionally working for the big picture studios, photographing many silent film megastars such as Theda Bara and Charlie Chaplin. Unfortunately, Albert died at the young age of 49 after a long illness, and Witzel Studios closed down soon after.
    Please check out the video for a few fabulous portraits of classic Hollywood actresses from the silent film era in 1910s and 1920s.
    I hope you enjoy the video!

    Trivia note: Witzel studio in downtown LA was the place where silent star Harold Lloyd was nearly killed while posing for publicity photos. Someone handed him what he thought was a prop bomb for a posed shot, and he lit the fuse and as it burned down he lowered it from his face level when it exploded. He lost his right thumb, index finger and the palm of his right hand, facial scars and temporary blindness. He wore two prosthetic fingers inside a tight flesh colored glove for the rest of his on screen career. Specks of bomb debris were in his eye for life.

    I love silent movies. Give me a Buster Keaton silent film or short any day! I wish more people would give them a chance. I feel people have neither the patience nor attention span for silent films these days. Oh, how much they miss! From Lon Cheney’s dramatic performances, to Keaton’s unbelievable agility and physical comedy, or Chaplin’s sincerity, to Bow’s enthusiasm, and Lloyd’s charm. Too bad for them, I guess.

      @arise2945 Год назад +1

      I'm pushing 60, and enjoy almost everything that is old and historic, but I have to admit that I have always found silents to be a real grind to watch. I would like to see versions made removing the unending title cards and adding a narration sound track. That might - just possibly - get a few more viewers to watch today. So many today won't even watch black and white, though, so I suspect that it is a losing battle.

    And to bring them back to life is so beautiful, so we can see what we missed 100 years ago.

      Still, you gotta admit the results are emotionally stunning. Looking at the living (appearance) of their faces, I found myself feeling sad for those women with tragic ends to their careers or lives. More so than just looking at the still images. The emotional response for me was heightened by this A.I. accomplished illusion.
      Brava/Bravo! 👏

    I never heard of most of these actresses, so thank you for the photos & biographies. Nice try, but "brought to life" is an overstatement. Blinking eyes, the same facial expressions and very slight head movements give more a robotic effect than anything else. Better to see them in actual movie sequences.
