ABSTRACT
Digital distribution outlets cry for content that is economical yet proven profitable. What better time for colorization to reemerge--and in high definition. Although roles in games are not as clearly defined as roles in film, patterns have emerged across the industry that allows talent to transition from company to company without any big issues. Everyone knows that the home theater has literally skyrocketed both in technology as well as the ability, in many cases, to present the theatrical experience more vibrantly than the hometown cinema. One of the most exciting emerging technologies for the future generation of entertainment venues is the total immersion experience. The tools required for sound restoration and noise removal are extremely sophisticated and infinitely complex. Historical accounts of colorization from its genesis in the late '80s and early '90s is replete with a handful of highly vocal, high-profile Hollywood celebrities who adopted a vehemently anticolorization stance.
