"Bleach bypass", as used in this context, was first used in [[Kon Ichikawa]]'s film ''[[Her Brother]]'' (1960). [[Kazuo Miyagawa]], as [[Daiei Film]]'s cameraman, invented bleach bypass for Ichikawa's film,<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.moma.org/calendar/exhibitions/4955| title=Kazuo Miyagawa: Japan's Greatest Cinematographer|work=Museum of Modern Art|date=April 12–29, 2018|access-date=May 14, 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.nikkansports.com/jinji/1999/seikyo990808.html |script-title=ja:日刊スポーツ・訃報・宮川一夫氏 |language=ja |access-date=April 20, 2008|url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071114174517/http://www.nikkansports.com/jinji/1999/seikyo990808.html |archive-date=November 14, 2007}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tokyolab.co.jp/50th/05.html |title=東京現像所：the 50th Anniversary：TOGENの歴史 |language=ja |access-date=April 20, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071114163558/http://www.tokyolab.co.jp/50th/05.html |archive-date=November 14, 2007|url-status=dead }}</ref> inspired by the color rendition in the original release of ''[[Moby Dick (1956 film)|Moby-Dick]]'' (1956), printed using [[dye-transfer process|dye-transfer]] [[Technicolor]], and was achieved through the use of an additional black-and-white overlay. Actually, this is a throw-back to pre-1944 Technicolor, which incorporated a silver-containing "blank receiver" with the silver image printed from the green separation negative, but at 50% density, upon which the color dyes were imprinted by utilizing "imbibition"; this concept may have been employed here, but at a different density.

Despite this early foray into the technique, it remained overlooked for the most part until its use by [[Roger Deakins]] for the movie ''[[Nineteen Eighty-Four (1984 film)|Nineteen Eighty-Four]]''.

The effect has subsequently become a regular development tool in laboratory work, and has remained in widespread use. Practitioners include cinematographers [[Rodrigo Prieto]], [[Remi Adefarasin]], [[Darius Khondji]], [[Dariusz Wolski]], [[Walter Carvalho]],  [[Oliver Stapleton]], [[Newton Thomas Sigel]], [[Park Gok-ji]], [[Shane Hurlbut]], [[Steven Soderbergh]] (as "Peter Andrews"), [[Tom Stern (cinematographer)|Tom Stern]], [[Vittorio Storaro]], and [[Janusz Kamiński]] (notably on [[Steven Spielberg]]'s ''[[Saving Private Ryan]]''<ref>{{cite web | access-date=September 8, 2008| url=http://www.sproe.com/s/spr-4.html | title=Combat Footage | publisher=Saving Private Ryan Online Encyclopedia}}</ref> and ''[[Minority Report (film)|Minority Report]]'').
