Doctor Who: The Dominators - Colourised

  • Опубліковано 16 жов 2024
  • Clips from my first attempts at colourising. I've used Photoshop to colour and Premiere Pro to keyframe, with varying results. More complicated movement is obviously the next challenge, but here's what I've achieved in two weeks.
    I've always had a fondness for The Dominators and think a splash of colour gives it a new lease of life. I'd love to assist with and support the Blu-ray range once I improve.

    This is incredible, it's like a parallel universe where 2nd Doctor/Jamie/Zoe stayed another few seasons into the early 1970s. Hard to know at times if you're watching a Troughton or Pertwee story!

      @@dickiegreenleaf750 Day Of The Daleks is very hard to beat as it thankfully consists of the original four episode colour prints. Having said that they did an excellent job on the re-colourisation of The Curse Of Peladon which is the next story in the season line.

      The Doctor figured out that in order to not appear threatening, he and Jamie had to act like idiots, and it's hilarious.

      I made a comment on gallifrey base, this really is good! How do you know the colours? I've never paid much attention of this story but seeing this clip in colour - then watched it side by side - I'm excited to see more. I'd love you to tackle The Ark but tbh I'd like to see more of this. 2 weeks for 4 minutes... great work!! Can't wait for more scenes.

    This is fantastic. I would love the blu ray boxsets of hartnell and Troughton to feature colorised versions of all the surviving episodes. It would make an incentive for new buyers to Who to drop some money.

    • @johnlarro6872
      @johnlarro6872 Рік тому +1

      Great concept, but the cost would be prohibitive. As it is, there are rumours they may colourise An Unearthly Child for the 60th... Of course - we know Babelcolour WAS asked to do this for the 50th, and he said no way! (After having done that 1 episode of Mind of Evil over 12 months..)

    This Dr Who story, was originally intended to be 6 parts, and it was shortened to 5 parts and also the Invasion was originally intended to be 6 parts but was foolishly lengthened to 8 parts which did not really work at all and also had the Invasion been made and shown in either 6 parts or even made and shown in 5 parts it would have been billions of times better than grotty 8 parts which did not work at all.

    This is brilliant ! I want to see more of this ! I am no expert on this process, how long does it take to colourise a full story ? And just how costly is it ? Last week I watched this story on a BBC video. It was in grainy black and white, with poor sound quality ! But this a vast improvement, not just the colour images, but the actual sharpness and clarity of image. It is worth remembering that this originally filmed more than fifty years ago !

    I'm assuming that those "vests" are possibly down-filled.
    If so, along with the long sleeves underneath, those guys (& the Doctor & Jamie?) had to be sweating up a storm.
    Unless they were filming inside a refrigerated set.

I enjoyed doing these in between other projects and it was a fun distraction.There are several far more talented and skilled people out there doing it to a much higher standard - I am in awe of their work!
