The Client Problem

Core Friction Points

The raw production footage was captured across multiple camera sensors (ARRI Alexa, RED V-Raptor, Sony FX6) in variable lighting conditions — resulting in mismatched skin tones, high dynamic range clipping, and disparate color profiles that threatened visual continuity.

02

Strategy & Architecture

We provided full-scale post-production finishing for Horizon Production Studios’ commercial and episodic documentary series. The pipeline integrated raw camera debayering (RED RAW & ARRI ProRes), strict ACEScc wide-gamut color grading, subtle film emulsion grain matching, custom title graphics, and a 5.1 surround-ready spatial audio mix.

How We Solved It

The Engineered Solution

Established an end-to-end ACES 1.3 color-managed pipeline in DaVinci Resolve Studio to unify sensor color spaces into a consistent wide gamut. Executed precision node-based power windows, secondary skin-tone isolations, custom print-film LUT emulation curves, and coupled the master visual with uncompressed 24-bit 48kHz multi-stem audio masters.

1
Multi-Cam Ingest & ACES Color Transformation: Converted ARRI LogC4, RED IPP2, and Sony S-Log3 inputs into a unified ACEScc wide-gamut working space with sensor-matched debayering.
2
Node-Based Secondary Grading & Film Emulsion: Applied custom contrast split curves, secondary skin-tone qualifiers, and organic 35mm film halation and grain profiles.
3
Spatial Sound Mixing & DCI Master Export: Cleaned dialogue using spectral de-noise, engineered immersive Foley soundscapes, and exported 4K DCI ProRes 4444 XQ master deliverables.
05

Master Export & Broadcast Delivery

Mastered in ACES 1.3 color-managed space, sensor-matched with precision secondary grading and organic film emulation, and delivered in uncompressed 4K DCI ProRes 4444 XQ alongside 24-bit 48kHz audio stems ready for broadcast and festival exhibition.
