- I HAVE SEVERAL COLORIZED VIDEOS ON MY CHANNEL, CLASSIC CLIPS THAT I ENJOY AND HOPEFULLY YOU WILL TOO. I GET A LOT OF PLEASURE DOING THIS SO I THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE THE WAY I DO IT!
I AM NOT SPONSORED BY ANY SOFTWARE I HAVE USED,
If you want really good quality you have to pay for it please remember that otherwise it will be a time consuming process Unless you have a computer second hand from NASA, at least this bloke was honest the rest of the videos on youtube are really conning you into a process of a time period of 24 hours and then you have to pay for water down version
Wow! Who knew when we watched these shows this would ever be possible? 😲
Yes, technology seems to keep getting better!
or you could just render the video in photoshop using the export tool. you can alter the size or resolution or frame rate.
Do you know of a way to make this more temporally stable?
The first episode of The Man From UNCLE was originally made as a 70 minute pilot entitled Solo, which was then extended into the first Man From UNCLE movie, To Trap A Spy. Both of these were made in colour, but when the first season was released in B&W, the first episode was a B&W 50 minute version of this story. However, in the pilot, their boss was a Mr Allison, who was replaced in the series by Mr Waverley.
So if anyone is thinking of colourizing that first episode, the easy way is to take scenes such as this one featuring Waverley, and create a cutdown version of the colour footage to match with the first episode and 'Bingo!'.
I wasn't aware of that William, thanks for letting me know.
To Trap a Spy was filmed in 16mm color....the theatrical version which I saw in the 60s was a color 35mm blow-up very grainy as expected.
You'll see the focal version if you buy the box set however it did confuse me for a time
Do any of these programs allow the user to identify an object in the video, and then manually assign a color to it. i.e. the program makes an apple red, but I want it to be green.
Yes, in Photoshop after you have colorized an image you can manually select any part of that image in the small screen on the right and click where you want the colour changed and that will bring up the colour picker, where you can select any colour.
thank you for the best video ever that I've seen about colorize video on youtube !!!!!!!
Thank you Pat
You'd have to do one scene at a time though. When they cut to maybe a street scene you'd have to do that separately. That's a lot of work.
Yes, it`s time consuming, depends how far you want to go.
Marvelous tutorial, right?
I hope so!
I used a method that lived your life
Excellent
My dear brother, I did the same as you did and I can't extract images from the Topaz Video Enhance AI program. I will see if I can find a solution if something goes wrong with it.@@imswitchedon
I’m a editor noob. I’d like to see something like this in one program, seamless, end to end without having to use several other programs to render it in the final process. Is there such a thing?
I only do this using different programs as it`s my preference, you can import a video to photoshop, colorize and export it out, there is another video on my channel called black & white film to colour part 2 which shows this way.
Thank you. This really helped me to understand the process.
Excellent, glad it was of help
Hello，I’m using the droplet but it keep doing saying feather command is not available when I try use the drop let
This randomly happened to me once, can`t recall what it was now but it was something simple. Make sure your sequence is numbered like 001,002,003, and also try using the "save as" command instead of "save" and that overide actions save as in the automate droplet box is ticked and on the destination folder also. Hope this helps.
Can the android version of photoshop do this?
I have never used the android version, but I`m pretty sure it would
@imswitchedon hmm my method is download the video, convert to gif. Colour each individual frame, use a vidro editor and put each frame into a video in sequence, speed it up and process the video then edit that video adjust the speed process and keep doing that until the clip runs at the correct speed. It takes A LONG TIME to get around 7 seconds of footage.
@@yakadoodledongywongy8718 yes it`s not a speedy process, would be quicker on pc than android
how come you can import videos on photoshop but i dont?
(i have a HP computer btw)
It could be to do with the format of the video you are trying to import is unsupported.
What is the format supposed to be then?
It should work fine with Mp4, it's always worked for me.
This is a very comprehensive explanation. Thank you. I tried this method but unfortunately this software is guessing color too much and also, it tries to apply color even in full darkness. The method is very good, I'll try and find another software for the colorizing process. Cannot be done manually, I have more than 100000 frames to process.
Yes, Photoshop can be difficult to get the colour just right when you have a lot of frames to do. I have had some good results from AVCLABS Video enhance AI. You can do batch processing of colorization and it does it quite quickly too.
@@imswitchedon MyHeritage website does a really good job at colourizing still images.
@@magnu75 yes I used to use it and it is good but expensive I think. The quality is similar to Remini.
Really the best way to do this is manually using editing software with a powerful suite of coloring tools like Davinci Resolve. Even then it will be a seriously tedious and painstaking process that will require at least a fair amount of experience and expertise in the software (eg. Resolve) and color in general. It will require a lot of masking (basically disassembling different parts of the image and then reconstructing them). It's definitely a bit of a more advanced process and definitely not something that a beginner will be able to tackle right off the bat. But if you understand the process (and have the patience) the end results can be really good. Amazing even.
@@theadventurebiker Ok, show us.
What the name of software or link please
I used Adobe Photoshop 2022 and Adobe Premier Pro 2020 to do this, but any versions of this software would work as long as the Photoshop has the colorize option.
You don't need to split the film into frames.
I know that thanks, there is another video on my channel showing the other way.
Great videos ❤thanks
Hope it is helpful
Very nice video can do 3t Michael Jackson why in colored
Glad you like it
You know what?? I think this would be PERFECT for the Classic Black and White Episodes of Doctor Who. That will be a project for Me to work on as soon as I get a Mac Studio with either the M2 or M3 Chip.
Go for it! I keep thinking what to colorize next?
@@imswitchedon Ummmm how about the Black and White episodes of say The Twilight Zone??
I`ve already done part of the episode with Neville Brand called The Encounter, but I may do more, also done several clips from the early Avengers, they came out well.@@vestel777
@@imswitchedon Awesome
Oops looks like the BBC have beaten you to it I switched on the telly the other evening I thought I was watching a doctor who episode from the 1970s or early 80s until William Hartnell popped up suddenly I realised I Was Watching actual episode from the early 60s and in And in colour and Super HD With the studio glow It was quite a shock
Thank you for the tutorial!
Glad you liked it
when i add photoshop coloured file in premiere pro why the video get shorter i mean, when i add audio of the same black and white video it is bit longer
Hi Yudeep, this will be because the frame rates are different. When you have the files on your timeliness right click on each one and select modify, interpret footage. You will find that one is 25 and one is 30 for example. They both need to be the same number.
@@YudeepS No add them in premier pro and then change the frame rate in the program so that it is the same length as the audio track
@@imswitchedon thank you so much, i got it….☺️
Hi! What amount of space îs required for this operation? I have a 90 mín video. Thanks!
Photoshop PSD files are quite large. I did a 30 second video today and the file size was 11gb. Obviously once they are stitched together to make the video its much smaller. I have never done a 90 minute video, and it would take several days to do but could be 2TB I would guess.
If I was doing this I would do it in maybe 6 separate videos and then join together at the end, that would save storage space.
Hello, one question. Do you know why when I pass the colorized frames to Premiere, the video results in a slower speed than normal and than the original video? I hope you can answer me.
Hi you just need to check what the frames per second on your original video are and then make sure premier pro or whatever video software you use is set to the same rate, if you are not sure there will be a UA-cam video to explain how. Hope that helps.
@@imswitchedon topaz video AI is affordable at $200. But Photoshop is very expensive, do u know of a cheap alternative of Photoshop?
@@imswitchedon and is there a time limit? Can I edit 10 minutes B&W video to color? Thank you ahead of time.
@@mauricelao2292 I don't but you could get Photoshop on a free trial and then cancel it at the end of the trial.
@@mauricelao2292 yes you can there is no time limit, it would take 4 to 5 hours to do roughly on an average computer.
Well, I can't afford that.
Wow that came out really good.
Thank you
Man that's unreal, thanks alot)
Glad you like it
hello sir. may ask the apps?
Topaz video enhance AI, Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe Premier Pro.
