Imagine being 90 years old and seeing a photo of yourself when you were two years old with your little puppy and your aunt and seeing it in color and brought to life a time, you probably don't even remember. This video is a creative excerpt from a presentation I created for a multi-generational family celebration celebrating birthdays 75, 80, 85 and 90. The full presentation was nearly 20 minutes long, but this short-form piece focuses on a powerful transformation: taking old black-and-white photographs from the 1930s and 1940s, restoring them, adjusting to true black-and-white, colorizing them, expanding them, and using modern AI tools to bring them to life as full-color video. These are images, reimagined through a creative and technical process that blends traditional design skills with cutting-edge artificial intelligence. The result is a powerful visual story, one that honors legacy, revives history, and creates emotional impact using nothing but old prints and technology.
