  • Experience the vibrant beach life of 1920s Hook of Holland in this stunning 4K 60fps footage. This rare glimpse of the past is a must-see! Colorized and enhanced to 4K 60 fps clarity with added sound. Ordinary citizens swimming and sunbathing over 100 years ago.
    Working class Dutch citizens relax on the beach resort in the town of Hoek van Holland. Despite beach vacations becoming steadily more popular in the early 20th century, in the early 1920s, social attitudes to swimming were still pretty conservative. Note the bathing machines, popular from the 19th century. These small wheeled cabins provided privacy for changing into and out of swimwear. The other feature are beach tents, to change and shelter in.
    Women's swimsuits consisted of simple romper suits or tanks tops and shorts. All the ladies wore swim caps to protect their hair from the salt water. The men wore trunks into the water but otherwise looked dapper in their coloured shirts, trousers with suspenders and straw boater hats
    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 frames interpolated to a higher frame rate ( in most cases 60 frames per second.) Finally I produce 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.

    So, you wear your suit and hat to the beach, then erect a changing tent and change into your swimsuit in your tent? Is that it? I guess it's better than changing in the car or a bathroom stall.
