Colour grading and finishing, Kingston

We will not show you the work in a browser, because a browser cannot show it

Prism is a two-suite grading and finishing house. Feature, documentary, series and commercial, delivered to broadcast and streaming specification. What is on this page is the roster, the rates and next month’s availability. The work itself you see in the room, on a calibrated display, which takes an hour and is free.

Why there is no showreel here

A graded frame in a browser is a frame that has been ungraded twice

Compressed, converted to a colour space we did not choose, and displayed on a panel that has never been profiled. That is not modesty, it is arithmetic.

Every colour house puts a reel on its website and every one of those reels is being shown through two conversions and a display nobody has calibrated. What you see is not what we delivered, and judging a colourist on it is like judging a mix through a phone speaker. So we publish the roster instead — what we graded, for whom, to what standard — and we will put an hour in the diary for you to see the actual work in the actual room. That hour is free and about a third of the people who take it book a session.

They told me on the phone that my delivery date was not possible before quoting me anything. Nobody else did that and everybody else was right that it was not.

An hour in the room, free

Come and look at it on a display that has been profiled

Bring a reel, bring a rough cut, or bring nothing and look at ours. It takes an hour, it costs nothing, and it is the only honest way to choose a colourist.
