Film Colour Correction

Most cine film formats
are in fact a combination of three separate primary colours
made from three separate chemical film emulations that are
bonded to a clear cellulose or plastic film base.
Over time, these three
chemicals can break down at different rates meaning the
original colour of the film can shift dramatically. For example
above left, the red dye has faded away leaving mostly the
blue and green colours behind. By digitally adding back the
red element on the right a more natural colour is
obtained.
Different reels of film
do this at different rates towards any one or all three
primary colours. We assess every reel of film on its own and
apply colour correction on a reel by reel basis. This is included
free on all our transfers, we don't see this as an option
extra!
