Concerns around Color Correction Practices in the digital production realm affect all of us alike. Cinematographers Ueli Steiger and Yuri Neyman will moderate this forum with a group of distinguished professionals - DPs, camera specialists, colorists, editors, VFX artists, and post supervisors - to discuss such topics as preserving color decisions in digital workflows, new technologies that are brought to market and adopted without full understanding of workflow implications, and in a world of digital processes, who is, and who should be, the author of the image?

About Gamma & Density

Gamma & Density Co. develops tools that enable cinematographers to maintain artistic and technical control over their images during the film and digital transfer processes.

Cinematographer Yuri Neyman (Liquid Sky, D.O.A. and many more) and Bob Currier are developers of 3cP system.

The Los Angeles-based company’s Thorough Control System (TCS) helps cinematographers arrive at their desired look during a film-to-tape transfer session by relying on a patented color chart that functions as a common language between DP’s, DIT’s and telecine colorists.

The 3cP system has been used, or is currently being used, on films including 10,000 BC, Babel, Iron Man, The Kite Runner, Quantum of Solace, State of Play, and TV shows including The Tudors, Their Eyes Were Watching God, Low Life, and many other projects.
