Colorization Notes

Leave start, end times blank to colorize the entire video
To lower colorization time, you can decrease FPS, resolution, or duration
modelv2 tends to color videos orange and sepia
modelv1 tends to color videos with a variety of colors
modelv2 and modelv1 use the same modified DCGAN architecture but differ in results because of randomization in training
