If you’re a history buff, or a cinema buff, or a science buff—any kind of buff, really—you will love this comprehensive tour of the evolution of color film and photography.

FilmmakerIQ hosts this informative account of how we got from black-and-white to the rich naturalistic colors of today. Not surprisingly, it wasn’t one sudden breakthrough. It took many individuals experimenting with many different methods to come as far as we have.

From the very first color still photograph, to hand-tinting, to technicolor and beyond, this video covers it all. It’s well worth your time. [Vimeo via ISO1200]
