Pathécolor

In 1905, Pathé Frères introduced the world to stencil-coloring in his film Pathé Color. This was the first financially successful and most accurate attempt at stencil-coloring. Pathé’s method allowed for a maximum of 6 colors per frame. This process involved sectioning pieces of the film into stencils and rolling the film through a coloring machine.
