Introduction >></strong></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><strong>BlackMagic may be used to colorize Black &
White, Sepia, or IR (infrared) photos, or to color-correct ones with faded or
inappropriate colours. Being extremely simple to use, its a software that transcends age
and professional boundaries, providing an immense sense of achievement, pride and
satisfaction for kids and adults alike. The resulting colorized photos have optimally
saturated and consistent, correct hues - giving the appearance as if the photo had
originally been 'shot' in colour! BlackMagic delivers such professional grade results with
the minimum of fuss, and just a few minutes worth of effort. BlackMagic incorporates
"TimeBrush™ RLC [Real-Life-Colour]™" standard. The TimeBrush RLC
technology was specifically created for colourizing black & white motion pictures of
the Hollywood fame. This feature provides BlackMagic the ability to render superb, rich,
vibrant looking colours, that are not under/ over saturated, yet look completely natural. </strong></font></p>
<p> </p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="3" color="#800080"><strong>Colourizing Photos - the ISSUES </strong></font><font face="Arial" size="2">Colourizing black & white photos can get quite involving,
depending upon the quality and sophistication of the results desired. The process involved
can be very tedious and challenging, taking a day [often several] to completely colourize
a single black & white photograph to professional grade quality. The typical 'paint'
computer programs usually require the operator to select individual hue [colour], opacity
[transparency], etc., for colouring a specific portion of the photo. This is further
compounded by the need to 'guess' the right hue/ saturation values to colour a certain
object, which can take several hit-and-trial iterations, with no guarantee of a 'best'
match. The whole process may need to be repeated hundreds of times over to finish a single
photograph...even then, the results often leave much to be desired, and rarely resemble
the 'real life colours' that we are used to seeing in colour photographs Even with all the
professional care and sophistication, it is common to get results depicting improper
colour matches, over saturated colours, dull/ faded colours, or over-emphasized/ blurred
edges.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="3" color="#800080"><strong>The BlackMagic Difference </strong></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">BlackMagic resolves all of the above problems associated
with colourizing black & white photos, and more. The system uses state-of-the-art
Neural Net algorithms to provide dynamic parameterization. This means that the user is not
required to pick specific colour hues or the associated values/ parameters - she/ he works
by simply identifying the 'type of object' to be coloured. BlackMagic then automatically
performs the needed calculations to continuously vary all required parameters, based on
the content of the photograph/ region being colourized - all done in the background
transparent to the user. This process ensures consistent as well as optimal selection of
hue, brightness, saturation, opacity, etc. for colourizing any object/ region of the
image, without the guess work that would otherwise have been required. BlackMagic provides
several tools, to most expeditiously apply RealLifeColour palettes to a monochromatic
image. It is available in several versions, to suit any budget or need.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="3" color="#800080"><strong>A Version to Suit any Requirement
or Budget </strong></font></p>
<p><strong><font face="Arial" size="2">BlackMagic is available in following flavors: </font></strong></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">HE [Home Edition] is a low priced consumer version suited
for home PC users, this edition of BlackMagic provides a fun way for Mums/ Dads, and the
kids alike, to have fun colourizing Black & White photos from the family album, or to
re-colour the ones that did not come out quite right. BlackMagic HE supports a maximum
processing resolution of one million pixels, suited for printing at A4/ Letter sizes
(similar in size to 8" X 10" photo prints) on most consumer-end colour printers
(such as colour photo ink-jet printers).This edition makes a unique gift for any occasion,
or an invaluable addition to your or your kids' personal software library. Photos
colourized using BlackMagic HE are indeed masterpieces that you or your kids create; the
results are sure to provide a tremendous sense of achievement, pride, and satisfaction,
besides delivering professionally restored family heirlooms, that will be admired by
generations to come. </font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">BE [Business Edition] is primarily aimed at small,
individually owned/ run photo restoration services, this edition of BlackMagic allows for
processing at upto 4M-pixel image resolutions, for high quality and higher resolution
prints. The Business Edition also offers additional functionality, tools, and palettes
over the HE version. </font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">PE [Professional Edition] is the ultimate
photo-colourization tool, and offers a rich set of tools and palettes for an unprecedented
level of productivity in colourization projects. The PE version supports processing at any
resolution [virtually, limited only by the computer's resources]. It offers additional
features and functionality over Home or Business Editions, and will suit large photo
processing/ restoration studios, or photo artists. </font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">All BlackMagic versions offer an extremely attractive ROI,
considering that having a single Black & White photo colourized from a photo-studio
may cost between US$ 50 - 500. All Editions come with full on-line help/ tutorial complete
with sample images, and 180 days web/ e-mail support which includes bug fixes and free
product updates. For more details and price/ feature comparison, please visit <a href="http://www.neuraltek.com/bmagic/" target="_blank">http://www.neuraltek.com/bmagic/</a>

<p><strong><font face="Arial" size="2">System Requirements</font></strong></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">Following are the minimum system requirements to run
BlackMagic software on a PC: </font>
<ul type="circle">
<li><em><font face="Arial" size="2">Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, XP (or later) equipped PC w/
Keyboard, and hard-disk with minimum 5 MB free space for the program.</font></em></li>
<li><em><font face="Arial" size="2">High resolution pointing device such as a mouse, pen/
tablet, etc.</font></em></li>
<li><em><font face="Arial" size="2">Colour Monitor + Graphics card capable of minimum 800 X
600 display at 16 bit [for BE/ PE a fast Graphics sub-system capable of 1024 x 768 upwards
resolution at 32/24 bit colour depth, and min. 32MB Video RAM is recommended].</font></em></li>
<li><em><font face="Arial" size="2">Minimum 24 MB memory [128 MB + recommended for BE, or
500MB + for PE].</font></em></li>
<li><em><font face="Arial" size="2">Hi Res.Scanner [OPTIONAL] to scan images</font></em></li>
<li><font face="Arial" size="2"><em>Printer [OPTIONAL] capable of colour photographic
quality output. </em></font></li>
</ul>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">* Please note: Though any Edition of BlackMagic can be run
on the minimal system specifications, more system resources may be required to handle
larger graphics, especially with the Professional Edition. Our tests indicate that to
process photos at around 14 MegaPixel resolution, a Pentium IV or equivalent system
running Windows 2000 or higher at 1.5GHz+ with 500+ MB system memory, and a fast Graphics
sub-system capable of minimum 1024 x 768 screen resolution at 32-bit colour-depth w/ 64MB+
video RAM, should be considered desirable for good response times.</font></p>
