Here at Tinker Taylor our footage is primarily filmed on state of the art Sony FS7 cameras using advanced gamma curves. When films are shot, it's extremely rare that all of the footage is filmed in exactly the same location, on the same day, at the same time of day, with the same lighting conditions, so the job of the editor/colourist is to ensure that the colour of the shots, given all these variables remains consistent and then is embellished as the production design dictates. Whilst the cake may be truly tasty as it is, to really make it the showstopper it needs to be for it to be a TT production, the icing (grade) on top is essential.Ĭolour grading is where an editor or specialist colourist will manipulate the colours to match shots or stylise footage. The base of the ‘cake’ is the film itself, made up from a blend of ingredients perfect camera angles, top notch script, engaging narrative, emotive acting, audio design etc. ![]() ![]() ![]() When asked to describe colour grading, I compare it to icing on top of a cake.
