01 Bio

I came to color from cinematography: around five years in film and video production, the last three as a DI colorist. The camera background built an understanding of light, optics and composition long before the frame reaches the grade.

The technical side of the pipeline is my territory alongside the grade: conform from any editing software, color management, mastering for delivery — from theatrical screening to vertical versions. The foundation is an engineering degree.

02 How we work
01
Brief & references

Mood, stills, frames from films — we agree where the image should land.

02
Prep & conform

You hand off the project following the prep guide; I rebuild your timeline 1:1.

Prep guide
03
Grade & rounds

First a look on key scenes, then the full pass. Comments in rounds — until it sits right.

04
Masters

Delivery to your spec: a master file, clips with handles, or an XML back into your NLE.

03 Pricing

Every project is priced individually. The estimate depends on:

  • runtime and the number of cuts;
  • complexity of the work — masks, tracking, beauty clean-up, noise reduction;
  • deliverable versions and formats — alternate runtimes, vertical versions;
  • deadlines.
