Film Production

September 21 in Cologne

Colour grading – and actually colour science – is a central aspect of the motion picture industry. The international colour scientist Dr. Charles Poynton and the world-class colourist Laurens Orij collaborate to present a workshop that covers some of the deep fundamentals, and some important current topics, in colour science for film production.

In this workshop, Charles Poynton and Laurens Orij will explain in detail camera technology and camera image coding. They will describe the “pipeline” of post-production and mastering, including the all-important scene rendering transform, and show how and where art is introduced using illustrative examples. The radiometric (linear-light) internals of modern grading systems such as Baselight and DaVinci Resolve will also be explained.

The focus is also on the colour pipeline: To this end, the key aspects will be discussed – acquisition colour space, grading space, and various mastering and distribution spaces, particularly the DCI X’Y’Z’ scheme, with its standard DCI P3 primaries, and commercial HDR distribution schemes including HDR10, HLG, and ICtCp-based Dolby Vision.

The two lecturers explain why BT.2020 primaries are not directly suitable for mastering or presentation.They will also introduce emerging modern post-production systems such as ACES 2.0 and OpenColorIO 2.0 and present recent developments in colour appearance models (CAMs).
