"Color first came on the cinematic scene, not all at once, like Athena bursting from the head of Zeus, but little by little, trickling into our field of vision."

- Adrienne Redd

The introduction of color in motion picture films helped to represents the pain, sensuality, conflict, beauty, evanescence, and mortality of human life

the end

In films like Pleasantville and The Wizard of Oz, color differentiates two universes.

based on the subtractive color system, which filters colors from white light through dyed or color sensitive layers within a single strip of film.

This was a system of pre-tinted black-and-white film stocks. The Sonochrome line featured films tinted in seventeen different colors

1929- Eastman Kodak introduced Sonochrome film

1917 -process called Prizma was introduced

This process gave a demonstration of color motion pictures that used an additive four-color process, using a disk of four filters acting on a single strip of panchromatic film in the camera.

Process began with Kodak's Kodachrome system. The process worked by bleaching away the silver and replacing it with color dye, then a color image was obtained.

1916- The first successful Subtractive color system began

This process was popular during the silent era, with specific colors employed for certain narrative effects (red for scenes with fire or firelight, blue for night, etc.)

This was a process in which either the emulsion or the film base is dyed, giving the image a uniform monochromatic color.

1916- Tinting was

introduced

This process incorporated an original print of a film with sections cut in the appropriate areas for up to six colors by a coloring machine

1905- Stenciling was

introduced

Annabelle's Dance

1895- hand colored films

were introduced

The first films with color in them utilized aniline dyes in order to create artificial color.
