“Public domain film from the Prelinger Archives, slightly cropped to remove uneven edges, with the aspect ratio corrected, and mild video noise reduction applied.
“The film was silent. I have added music created by myself using the Reaper Digital Audio Workstation and the Independence and Proteus VX VST instrument plugins.”
In two parts.
1. The process of making newsprint paper, starting with the spruce logging in Canada, for the Chicago Tribune.
–
2. The reporters and editors of the 1930s Chicago Tribune, with about half of the segment dedicated to cartoonists such as Frank King, creator of Gasoline Alley, and Harold Gray of Little Orphan Annie.
