16mm Time Machine

A look through the past spanning the last 100 years, historical footage covering everything from military to slice-of-life. A mix of independently shot silent home movie footage primarily from the 1920s-1940s, along with produced footage up to the 1970s.

All scans/transfers and processing done in-house from original film on custom frame-by-frame scanner. No AI tools used. Edited, framed & color-corrected in Resolve, with soundtracks arranged from public domain & licensed music for most silent ones. 16mm Frame resolution is ~1400p-1800p scaled to 2160p for higher quality on YT. 8mm ~1200p.

Select cleared films (Government, non-renewed/non-filed published, films of 95+ years, author + 70, or explicitly) are monetized on this channel. Otherwise - just here for your enjoyment or research! Revenue (if any) will go towards scanner equipment & film costs.
