  • Watch Online / Color and Finish (2014)



    Desc: Color and Finish: Directed by Rob Baynard. With Andrew Balis, Peter R. Berg, Terence Curren, Bradley Dash. It begins with a history of film chains and the beginning of telecine with the rank cintel and the advent of electronic post. It moves through the digital transition and the loss of standards in regards to capture and manipulation workflows, as well as output issues, bringing us to ACES and the potential to standardize capture, color science, workflow, systems, output and display. The second act will cover who a colorist is and what they do, with discussion around look creation, shot matching, skin tones, stereo correction, enhancing story, running a session, and maintaining client relationships. The third act will be the current and future industry: the democratization of technology and workflows, shrinking budgets with colorists asked to do more and more, increasing demand for visual effects, the importance of final color and why heroes will be needed into the future, mentoring and recommendations for aspiring colorists, handlers and filmmakers, and finally where it is going.
