Ice Skating on a Frozen Lake in 1902: Footage Restored to Life

Young people ice skating on a frozen lake in 1902. Footage restored to life with deep learning AI. Colorized w/added sound. Filmed at Parc La Fontaine, Montreal. A group of children and adults can be observed ice skating past a motionless camera, their expressions filled with curiosity and amazement. Likely unaware that they were being captured on a ‘motion picture’ camera, as they were a novelty and scarcely known during that era. With the aid of contemporary film colorization and upscaling technology, we were able to revive this 120 year old time capsule which was previously silent and damaged footage. AI machine learning technology offers a unique time travel experience into the distant past. We invite you to delight in this exceptional and historical film, made possible by the capabilities of advanced AI machine learning and neural networks. A voyage through time in colour and sound.
