I used a variety of software applications to put together this short video dedicated to the Man of 1,000 Faces, Lon Chaney (Sr.). While I barely made a dent in reviewing Lon’s incredible number of faces, at least it’s a start. I used Photoshop to restore dingy old photos to a like-new B/W sheen, and then turn them into color images. Each finished color image was then sent to the Motion Portrait software demo to create the illusion of movement from still photos. As a finishing touch, I used Magix Audio Lab to clean up and restore the sound quality to a 1922 acoustical record of Gounod’s “Funeral March of a Marionette,” more popularly known as Alfred Hitchcock’s theme from his TV series.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
That’s tremendous, Bob! Really interesting.
Brilliant!! Awesome! A glimpse of what the future might have in store for all kinds of applications to Old Hollywood. Thank you for investing so much time in this, and sharing it with us!
As always, your work is superb; thank you.
