Colourists contribute to the feel and mood of a film or series by helping to define its look. Working with the Director and Director of Photography, they tune in a palette and tone; whether the look is contrasty and warm or cooler in the shadows, there’s lots of magic that happens in the grading suite which lends itself to the story. But how do Cinematographers work with Colourists?

With no hard and fast rules about how to get from A to B, and with these unique types of collaborations usually happening in dark grading suites behind closed doors, how does it all happen? And how do you best tackle a grade?

Join us at Images & Sound for a panel discussion where we’ll hear from experienced guests about how this specialised relationship works. Panellists include Colourists Alana Cotton and Paul Lear and Cinematographers David Cameron NZCS ACS and Tammy Williams.

Join us from 6:30 PM for pizza and refreshments with the event kicking off at 7:00 PM, to better understand the dynamics and evolution of the grading process, as well as the intricate relationships formed.
