Offline

The Final Cut
Offline editing is the first step of the post-production process. All the raw footage is copied and edited, not affecting the camera original film stock. This way, all footage is digitalized into the suite at a low resolution, making it possible for the editor and the director to work with all the options to create the final cut.

Motion design

Kinetic Joy
The art of motion graphic design has been arrived for decades and has advanced in technical sophistication overtime. This popular tool is largely used in the film and advertising industry, becoming a common requirement for all media, including print. The designer`s role is to introduce kinetic elements, making sure they are modern, appealing and suitable for the project.

Grading

Visual Esthetics
Color grading is a big part of the creative process, improving the appearance of an image for presentation in different environments and devices. Contrast, color, saturation, black level, and white point may be enhanced whether for motion pictures, videos, or still images. Giving the image the right tone is decisive for the communication goal of a project and achieving its desired visual aesthetics.

3D / VFX

Pandora`s Box
3D and Visual Effects opened the possibility to create or manipulate imagery outside the context of a live-action shot in filmmaking. In the amazing 3 dimension world, we can say that almost everything is possible! With generated imagery, you can create everything you desire, from environments to inanimate objects, from cute animals to creatures which look realistic, but would be dangerous, expensive, impractical, time-consuming or impossible to capture on film.

Online

Ready, Set, Go!
Compositing is the final step of the post-production pipeline. At this stage, everything comes together and gets its final retouches to be ready for broadcasting. The compositor receives material from various sources which can include rendered computer animation, special effects, graphics, 2D animations, live-action, static background plates, etc and creatively combines all the elements into the final image, ensuring that the established style of the project is respected!
