Worth mentioning: the earliest surviving color footage - which begins this film - was never seen until recently. The inventor shot it with a camera which placed a different colored filter in front of every third frame. He managed to get images on film, but never came up with a way to project the film with three different filters on the projector.
A few years ago, his film was scanned and digitally -projected- following his instructions. It worked - but it took a over a century to get it to.

hey wired I'm a bit disappointed in you guys, it makes me think how much of your other stuff you might have made up or not properly researched. now the first roll of footage was made in Australia at the Melbourne cup, the first color movie was actually -Ned Kelly- about a group of Australian gangsters. I'm am proud to be Australian and I think you should give credit were it is due if you would like to contest me or think that I'm wrong please address my complaint

2: 00 So people should know that despite the fact it looks like the movie goes from sepia to color, they actually shot the whole shot in color. They painted the interior of the house and use a double for Dorothy with a sepia colored costume. You can actually see the trick: Dorothy's double, after opening the door, gets out of the frame for letting Judy Garland's Dorothy getting into it.

So much in this video that I didn't fully know about before.
This video also makes me wonder about how long the list of jobs for any given movie must be. Crazy long is my thought.
I'm certainly happy to live during this time in the evolution of film; not that I'd have known too much about what I was missing had I been born much earlier in the 20th century, of course. :-)

I know this has nothing to do with the content of the video, but I cringe every time I hear someone say -Super Mario Bros- instead of -Super Mario Brothers. - It's written -Bros. - as an abbreviation for -Brothers. - It's not like they're some frat bros or something.

I'm sure I noticed improved film around the early 2000s. I remember watching Black Hawk Down and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) thinking that the blacks look really black, not a sort of grey black like I had seen in previous movies!

This is why old movie are better than modern movie, no shaky cam and no over-graded like orange and teal look, cyan-ish look, yellow-ish warm look, green look like matrix, or a low contrast and underexposure, old movie looks colorful

well, okey the evolution is huuuuuge
but look at those CGI movies. Sometimes it looks too unrealistic and the whole effect is -too much-. You know what I mean? There should be a fine line beetween effects + aesthetic + reality

The first Filipino movie with a color sequence film was Ibong Adarna (1941. In one scene the Adarna bird was hand-painted, frame by frame. The first Filipino full-color film was Batalyon XIII or Batalyon Trece (1949.
