The history of color film was competitive and dates back to the 19th century, many experiments have been done but only Technicolor drove the technology forward enough beating its rivals to create the first stable image.

Technicolor was a company that not alone changed the world but this is also how Technicolor changed movies.

I hope you have more of an understanding of 'what is technicolor' and the history of film.

If you want to do more research yourself look into Natalie Kalmus and how she shaped the aesthetic of Technicolor movies overseeing the creative side of the company.

I plan to do more educational film history videos, so stay subscribed for more video essay film content.
