That has been something I've wondered about since seeing frame comparisons of (probably) telecine'ed prints of The Matrix vs. the myriad home video releases.
- ancientworldnow 11mo agoI'm a colorist and it absolutely does effect color. Every telecine is different and will create a different looking scan. Telecine operators will do a one light pass to try and compensate but any scan needs to be adjusted to achieve what the artist's original vision was.

I mean they should be calibrated, so they have a different feel, but they shouldn't be wildly different like the screen shots. I know the spirit operators did magic, but they were in the advertising team, and I was in film so I was never allowed to visit the sexy telecine room.
- mrguyorama 11mo agoI was going to mention the Noodle video on that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPU-kXEhSgk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPU-kXEhSgk TL;DW, different physical rolls of film sent to different movie theaters can have slightly different coloring, if they were done by different people or different companies or even if someone just did their job differently that day. Film color was not an exact science and not always perfectly repeatable, and depended on chemistry.
