2021 is Marching on! We hope you and yours are safe and things are getting better where you are.
We've had a busy start to the year, and are beginning to plan the next Colorist Mixer which will be held Saturday April 10 - save the date! In the meantime you can now watch all the sessions from December on our website.
There are lots of new classes coming up, both live and on demand, including half day deep dives if you want to get a feel for them, classes on Resolve, calibration & color theory, and classes in Mandarin and Spanish.
There's also a new Color Tour podcast to listen to, a video and free template for structuring your project files in folders, an article on grading Monsters of Man, and if you missed out free 4-part course on Mistika 10, you can watch the sessions so far on-demand.
Hope to see you at the Mixer if not sooner! Stay safe and stay colorful, Team iColorist

After the huge success of our first Virtual Mixer in December, we're back with another online industry party. While we all wish COVID was gone, and NAB was on, we can at least get together in cyberspace to discuss working during the pandemic, working in a new country right now, charging clients & the new normal. This Mixer will be held April 17 from midday to 6pm Vegas time (PDT/ UTC-7). |
|
|
| We'll be hosting a free webinar to discuss one of the most popular topics from the Colorist Mixer - how to set your prices, pitch for work and charge clients. It's always tricky to know how to charge, and now more than ever with several changes to the entertainment landscape - tighter budgets, lower costs with remote grading, and delayed projects. Undercharging can lose you clients just as easily as overcharging. Come along to this free webinar to hear how the pros do it and pick up some tips at 8pm UTC Thursday 25th March. | |
