Right here’s an fascinating video that explores the historical past of Technicolor within the Nineteen Thirties and the way it was actually black and white and the colourful colours have been an “phantasm to trick your eyes into seeing one thing that isn’t actually there.”
The video makes use of The Wizard of Oz for instance and that is some critically fascinating perception that I wasn’t conversant in earlier than.
NationSquid explains how Technicolor created the phantasm of coloration utilizing a prism to separate pink, inexperienced, and blue photos onto three black and white movie strips after which developed them with cyan, magenta, yellow, and black dyes.
The entire thing is loopy mad science! It’s rather more fascinating watching the video and having all of it defined to you, so test it out!
