SCENE 01 / COLOR GRADING

Color Grading

Creative color grading that transforms your footage into cinematic masterpieces with emotional depth and visual impact.

Scroll

Grading is the creative craft of shaping color, contrast, and tone to set mood, visual style, and story meaning. In calibrated grading suites, colorists shape the emotional tone of each scene through careful color choices. Every choice serves the director's storytelling vision.

We set up grading sessions with skilled colorists in proper calibrated rooms. Our team handles media prep, reference material, and scheduling. Your production then gets the creative color work that brings the director's vision to life on screen.

      Creative color grading and HDR finishing in France

      France's grading culture grows from the country's auteur cinema tradition. Our partner colorists in Paris, Lyon, and on the Côte d'Azur bring that feel to each project. Working in DaVinci Resolve Studio and Baselight rooms, they calibrate to DCI-P3 for theatrical and Rec.709 for broadcast and streaming. They shape mood and tone with careful primary and secondary corrections, power windows, and tracked relighting. This nuanced work lifts a film from polished to truly distinctive.

      We handle HDR grading natively on calibrated Sony BVM-HX310 and Eizo reference monitors. SDR trim passes are made in the same session, which keeps intent steady across HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG masters. Remote sessions stream calibrated, color-accurate feeds through Streambox or ClearView, so directors and DPs can review from anywhere in real time. Whether your finish lands at Mikros, Saint-Cloud, or a boutique suite in Bordeaux, each project leaves with theatrical DCP, IMF, broadcast, and streaming masters that match the look OK'd in the grading bay.

      Can you create specific film looks or period aesthetics?

      Yes, we can. We build custom looks from subtle natural grades to bold stylized ones. Whether you want a muted thriller style, warm period drama tones, or futuristic sci-fi looks, we craft striking visuals that serve your story.

      How do you handle HDR grading?

      We grade in HDR natively on calibrated HDR reference monitors, then create SDR trim passes for standard release. Our pipeline supports HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG formats, so your content looks stunning on any display.
