Hello this is DGSpitzer! I use a series of AI to recover a video from 100 years ago!
It's about Beijing street scene during 1920-1929. Shot by a Canadian photographer.
Shots of native huts, boys playing with a dog, rickshaws, horse-drawn carts; stagecoach speeding about, going through a massive archway, women playing Chinese version of tennis, square filled with people, market displays. Many people are looking at the camera, shop-lined street, pedestrians. Shots of people inside shop, Beijing, square, pedestrians, rickshaws. Shots of progression featuring a statue being carted past the camera, square, many people milling about, vendor's display in middle of square. Shot of crowded room seen through open front - communal kitchen, steaming vats, people going in and out, front of dwelling, a vendor stops in front of it with his wares, passersby stop and buy, occupant of house comes out and buys as pedestrians approach, salute one another and go on. A water carrier enters house, comes out.
