Color Grading & Finishing

What We Do

On-Media provides color grading services and online finishing for independent films, corporate videos, broadcast programs and more. Our goal is to take your film to the next level creatively, while making your postproduction a smooth process.

Color Grading

Color in the video post-production workflow is no longer a simple matter of getting your color settings right. With the arrival of RAW or S-log recording to all range of video cameras, Color Grading has become a key aspect to all media projects.

Grading offers one of the most significant enhancements you can make to your material once it’s been shot. It can elevate a good image to great and a great image to outstanding.

We adapt our workflow to your needs, taking into account the scope of your project as well as your budget while spending as much time as possible on the creative aspect of Color Grading.

Post Services

At On-Media, we offer a full range of services for your video finishing needs. We simplify postproduction by integrating the following services in a comprehensive workflow.

Conforming

From shorts to features, On-Media is equipped to tackle the full spectrum of video work with extensive expertise. Conforming a high budget 30-second commercial might not involve the daunting challenges presented by a long form documentary with hundreds of hours of media filmed over years (if not decades) in multiple codecs, resolutions and frame rates. With our professional background in documentary films, we understand and care for the special needs of non-fiction creators.

Transcoding / Archival and Old Footage Repair

We use Cinnafilm’s award-winning Tachyon for frame-rate conversion and optimization tool. Created from the ground up for file-based workflows, there is not another engine on the market that can match the speed, scalability and excellent transcoding results of Tachyon

Using the DaVinci Resolve suite of correction effects such as ResolveFX Color and ResolveFX Revival , we tackle the most characteristic challenges presented by archival film and video footage, including dust, hair, scratches and color stabilization.
