Brown Motel Building with Balconies Overlooking Swimming... — Clip Details

Shot on 8mm film in 1958, this vintage home movie captures a sun-drenched view of a brown motel-style building with balconies overlooking a bright blue swimming pool. The camera pans slowly across the scene, revealing a grassy lawn and a metal pool ladder under a clear sky. The footage exhibits classic Super 8 grain, color shifts, and lens flares, evoking a nostalgic mid-century American vacation atmosphere. This archival clip offers authentic retro footage for documentaries, period pieces, or nostalgic content.

Archive Intelligence

Archive brief fit: Supports requests for 1950s Las Vegas vacation or motel-pool atmosphere for documentary, museum, education, or period editorial use.
Period detail: The visible motel-style balconies, lawn, pool ladder, and saturated color may show mid-century leisure architecture and resort landscaping.
Home-movie behavior: The clip preserves a visitor-shot viewpoint, panning across the pool area from a casual distance without staged action or posed subjects.
What appears in frame: Visible details include a blue swimming pool, metal ladder, green lawn, brown two-story building, shaded balconies, windows, walkway, and bright sky.
Film character: The 8mm footage has soft focus, strong contrast, blue color shifts, gate edges, and slight handheld drift that mark it as original home-movie film.
Edit role: An editor could use it as a brief establishing insert, vacation-memory cutaway, or transition between Las Vegas travel and lodging scenes.
Historical context: The scene reflects a sunny motel or resort pool setting associated with postwar American leisure travel, based only on the visible exterior and metadata.
Research note: No people, logos, or brands are visible, but copyright, location identification, and property-release needs should still be reviewed for the intended use.
Research search match: Useful for searches such as 1958 Las Vegas home movie, 8mm motel swimming pool, mid-century resort exterior, and vintage vacation pool footage.
Archive pairing path: Pair first with adjacent shots from the same reel, then other Las Vegas 1958 clips, then broader 1950s motel, pool, and American vacation material.
