1920s-Style Skit: Yorktown Memorial Hospital
Personal Project for Dead Club Paranormal
A cheesy skit created for the full-length investigative video on YouTube, offering a fun and creative take on the rumored history of Yorktown Memorial Hospital.
To achieve a 1920s-style look, I color graded the footage to black and white, added film grain, dust, and specs overlays, sped up the film to mimic old low-frame-rate motion, adjusted limited dialogue to sound more distant, incorporated loud 1920s music, and added film crackling.
One challenge was balancing the exaggerated, playful style with clarity, ensuring the story was still understandable despite minimal dialogue. The final skit added a unique, nostalgic tone to the video and helped engage viewers by providing a memorable and entertaining segment.
