Hi guys,
I'm curious, I've heard that you can change Black and White photo's into colour, however, I don't quite have the software to do this. Would any possibly be able to change these black and white images into Colour for me? If its possible?

Changing each and every pixel colour to make the picture have colour is a big job. Trying to get the right shade and contrasts of the colour..
And sometimes it doesn't come out with the right look, as it's soo complex.

I don't know if you have ever watched an old movie that was made before color cameras but you are watching it in color. This is mostly done by hand by hundreds of workers at the Technicolor company. So this proves that this is possible but very hard.
I could do this task for you but I can't promise that it will be either pretty or for that matter accurate. :-\
If you give me some basic color ideas, I do have this kind of software to tackle this kind of project. :-\

Hi Jack.
(Oops, just closed that airport again).
I think that what you are after is something like this: http://www.blackmagic-color.com/ ;)

Hi Terry,
If that product is based on the work of Levin, Lischinski, and Weiss at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, it might do the job well.
To correct what llamalord said earlier, Technicolor did not do the bulk of the colorization of old movies. That was done by a firm in Marina del Rey, that I believe went bankrupt and is reincarnated as Legend Films.
Technicolor, for decades, has been primarily a lab engaged in making release prints using the same integral tri-pak material as other labs like Deluxe and CFI.
Although Herbert Kalmus—founder—pioneered the three-strip camera and the dye imbibition process in the 30s, Technicolor had abandoned those technologies by the time I worked for them—computerizing the color timing operation.
The cinema colorization began with digitizing the B&W film with as many gray-scale values as possible. In principal, colors could be assigned to each level in the various regions in a frame, and computer programs could track those colors through subsequent frames. Much hands-on guidance was required.
Although labor intensive, the majority of the approximately 150 people involved were engaged in such activities as researching the colors to be used and story-boarding them.
The computer-generated production then went through a color-timing process similar to what Technicolor did for TV productions.
Regards,
Marty

Hi Marty.
As far as I know, that software is indeed based on the same methods as Marina del Rey used. Obviously times have moved on, and modern PCs are incredibly powerful. Some of the processes have been automated to a great extent, but it is still somewhat time consuming.
