Use of A.I to match dailies or multi-cameras - Colourlab Review

What is Colourlab ai?

Colourlab is an application based on Artificial Intelligence to help match dailies or multi cameras/scenes.

What colourlab does?

Colourlab Ai flips the grading process on its head by essentially removing the manual part which requires extreme skill and technical expertise, and puts the focus purely on the creative. It has the potential to save filmmakers hours or even days of work, with the ability, in one instance, to process and color match. It can deliver consistent high-quality results across all shots.

My thoughts on Colourlab.ai as a digital cinema colorist -

  • Its a game changer.

  • I would like to see it integrated within the color application in Assimilate scratch/Davinci resolve/baselight.

Jason Antic, the AI man behind deoldify

DeOldify is a Self-Attention Generative Adversarial Network-based machine learning system that colorizes and restores old images and video . It’s only in the early stages but it’s already producing really impressive results.
— Jason Antic's

I recently discovered #deoldify, an AI-trained algorithm that colorizes old photos. This is not photo re-touching, but instead a computer that was trained to colorize black & white photos based on what colors it “thinks” things are. I was surprised by the result it produced.
