Colorization and Restoration Process

The video tutorial explains the intricate process of colorizing and restoring old black and white footage. It involves multiple steps, starting with analyzing the footage to find color references, followed by working with historians and researchers to ensure historical accuracy. The restoration process involves cleaning the footage to remove imperfections. Finally, colors are replicated on each frame, requiring a large team of animators and artists. The project is extensive, covering thousands of shots and frames over several months.
