colorize
Make film chromatic
Colorize means to add color to something originally in black and white, especially photographs or films.
The process uses digital or manual techniques to transform monochrome images: They colorized classic Hollywood movies for modern audiences.
The practice is sometimes controversial among film purists who prefer original black-and-white cinematography.
Also spelled colourise in British English.
