The Perfect Finish...Every Time

For over a century, Technicolor has been an industry leader in the development and refinement of color finishing. The company’s success is based on Technicolor talent and innovation.  Our award-winning colorists bring their own unique sensibilities to the projects they color-grade, while maintaining the creative integrity established by the project’s director and cinematographers. 

Your partner in the color finishing process, Technicolor is supported by the strongest color science in the industry, with in-house Los Angeles-based imaging specialists, as well as researchers located in the company’s innovation facility in Rennes, France. 

Additionally, Technicolor colorists located in our production centers around the world, including Los Angeles, London, New York City, Toronto and Paris, employ the broadest array of color-grading technical solutions based on the creative needs of the specific project as defined by the storytellers. 

HDR : The New Frontier

High-Dynamic Range (HDR) represents the latest generation of imaging technology. By expanding the color range traditionally available, through deeper darks and brighter highlights, HDR gives filmmakers a broader palette with which to tell their stories and deliver more immersive, cinematic experiences – be it their intent to deliver images that are stunningly realistic or that transport their audiences far beyond reality.

By working with Technicolor, we can help you harness the power of HDR through every stage of your project – from parallel on-set SDR and HDR monitoring and HDR dailies, right through VFX, picture finishing and delivery.
