Digital BW, The Print

The DVD for O Brother has a neat short where they explain how the whole 
film was shot neutral, and then scanned and manipulated frame by frame 
for color balance and tone.

This is how they do things like fade from B&W to color and mix sepia and 
B&W in the same shot and so on.
