Here is how this works in practice. Color fix is the tech process of normalizing and balancing footage to achieve steady exposure, white balance, and tonal range across all shots. This foundational step corrects inconsistencies introduced by changing lighting conditions, different cameras, or differing shooting environments across production.

Here is the short of it. We connect you with colorists and grading suites equipped to deliver pro color fix for your project. Our team sets up media preparation, session scheduling, and quality control to make sure your footage achieves steady, in tech accurate color that forms a solid foundation for creative grading.

      DaVinci Resolve Studio and Baselight correction at Egg Post Dublin, Windmill Lane, Framestore Dublin, and Yellowmoon Belfast with Sony BVM-HX310 reference monitoring

      Here is how this works in practice. Color fix for shoots finishing in Ireland routes through the Dublin and Belfast picture-finishing bench anchored by Egg Post Dublin (DaVinci Resolve Studio Advanced + Baselight grading suite. Sony BVM-HX310 reference monitor. Dolby Vision and HDR10 mastering). Windmill Lane Dublin (combined audio + picture finishing), Framestore Dublin (the UK Framestore Dublin branch with the Game of Thrones and Doctor Who lineage), and Carlton Television Belfast. Yellowmoon Belfast handles the Northern Ireland slate with full HDR finishing skill. Common Travel Area cross-border routing into London's Goldcrest Post. Molinare.

      Here is the short of it. Firm 3 London serves prestige global co-productions when the slate needs those supervisor relationships. Senior colorists have Gary Curran at Egg Post (the principal today's Irish-feature finishing voice), with cross-watched work from London colorists on co-production slates. The bench has corrected the Banshees of Inisherin desaturated Atlantic palette (Achill Island + Inishmore). Belfast's selective-color B&W (Branagh 2021). The Quiet Girl (An Cailín Ciúin) natural-light Gaeltacht palette. Normal People's textured Trinity-and-Sligo grade, the Vikings ash-and-ochre look, and the GoT The North slate-grey palette.

      Here is the breakdown. Correction sessions match shots scene-by-scene at primary level. Balancing exposure, white-balance, contrast, and saturation across the cut — before delivering to the creative-grading colorist for the final look pass. Pipelines run DaVinci Resolve Studio (the dominant Irish cinema standard) and FilmLight Baselight for higher-end feature work. With ACES (Academy Color Encoding System) and ARRI Reveal color running as the linear working space. Source material has ARRIRAW, RED R3D, Sony Venice X-OCN, Blackmagic RAW, and ProRes at 4K, 6K, and 8K resolution.

      Here is what that looks like on the ground. Reference tracking runs Sony BVM-HX310, BVM-X300, and Flanders Scientific XM311K for HDR (Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, HLG) and SDR (Rec.709, Rec.2020 SDR) deliverables. Round-trips back to the edit Avid Media Composer or Premiere Pro project with conformed corrected stems. With deliverables tuned to Coimisiún na Meán + RTÉ Tech-Ops + BBC NI + Virgin Media + TG4 broadcast spec, Netflix Ireland office QC. HBO Max, Disney+, Amazon Prime, Apple TV+, and Sky Ireland streaming spec. Plus DCP packages for Cineworld Ireland, Light House Cinema Dublin, and Galway Film Fleadh / Dublin Global / Cork Global festival circuits.

      FAQ

      Frequently Asked Questions

      What's the difference between color correction and color grading?

      Here is the breakdown. Color fix is the tech process of balancing exposure, neutralizing color casts, and making sure consistency across shots. Grading is the creative process that comes after, where we develop specific looks and styles. We mostly complete correction first to set up a clean foundation before applying creative grades.

      Can you match footage from different cameras?

      Here is what that looks like on the ground. Yes, we specialize in matching footage from many camera systems with different color science. Whether you're combining ARRI, RED, Sony, or Canon footage, we balance each source to create seamless scene matching across your entire project.

      How do you ensure broadcast compliance?

      Here is how the picture comes together. We use pro scopes (waveform, vectorscope, histogram) and automated QC tools to check all footage meets broadcast-safe levels for your target platform. This has luminance, chrominance, and gamut compliance for specs like EBU R128, SMPTE, and platform-specific needs.

      What formats and resolutions do you support?

      Here is what we have to work with. We handle all pro formats including ARRIRAW, RED R3D, Sony RAW, ProRes, DNxHD, and more in resolutions from HD through 8K. Our color-managed pipeline makes sure accurate reproduction no matter source format or delivery specs.

      Productions in Ireland that need this often pair it with Color Grading Services, Look Development Services, and Online Conform & QC Services for full coverage. Most projects also draw on Audio Post-Production Services and Title Design & Credits Services.
