With a background in post-production, editing, and graphics, Craig has dived into the world of color grading using various colour tools from the early days of apple color and currently using DaVinci Resolve Studio, industry leading software in the colour grading field. Craig is trained on Davinci, and had been grading projects for over 15 years.
As a cinematographer, Craig often finds himself in the grading suite as a client. It’s his job to bring the vision of the production to life, working closely with the producer and director, making sure the look and feel of the project match the amazing lighting and atmosphere created during the shoot. It’s a key part of crafting stunning visuals.
Understanding the grading suite and the tools at a cinematographer’s disposal in post-production isn’t just useful, it makes everything more efficient and elevates the project to new heights. Plus, it adds a little extra excitement to the creative journey!
