Video color correction has only been available to private Industry for less than two decades.
When a colorist of today looks back at the process of video correction, he or she would probably consider it to be completely ancient. However, at the time, the equipment of the time was such that the TBC was adequate to handle needs such as adjusting the picture and correcting improper camera filtering.
At Its inception, video-to-video color correction was not considered practical. The video signal was not digital, and were measured by voltage meters. If a technician needed to correct a copy, it meant that the original copy would be lost.
Most of the time, the technician would make the necessary color corrections in the editing process, making the loss minimal. However, the machines that were needed to do this were loud and generated a lot of noise. There were not any of the safeguards available today when this process was in its infancy.
The greatest problem that plagued technicians were that it was very difficult to recreate the settings of a particular scene and that there was no capacity for memory or storage.
Video to video color correction has come a long way in the past few decades. New and innovative technology is being developed every day and someday in the near future, this process will also become obsolete.
