Database of Historical Film Colors

Postby Uli Ruedel » Tue Apr 24, 2012 5:47 am

Slightly OT? Perhaps a little since most silent and classic film conedy is BW, then again, there's even a color system named after Mack Sennett, and I guess one of the few reasons to watch Supercinecolor is the team of Abbott and Costello! Anyways, an extensive database on Historical Film Colors painstakingly created by Barbara Flueckiger, has gone online: http://zauberklang.ch/colorsys.php. It's a work in progress, so please also consider the support campaign here: http://www.indiegogo.com/colorprocesses

Thanks,

Uli
