SCENE 01 / COLOR CORRECTION

Color Correction

Professional color correction services ensuring technical accuracy and visual consistency across your entire production.

Scroll

Color correction balances footage for steady exposure, white balance, and tonal range across every shot. This base step fixes the gaps that creep in from changing light, different cameras, or varied shooting spots.

We pair you with colorists and grading suites built for pro color correction. Our team handles media prep, session scheduling, and quality control. Your footage lands on steady, accurate color that gives creative grading a solid base.

Technical Color Correction for Japanese Productions

Colour correction is the base everything else sits on, and footage shot across Japan rarely arrives balanced. One drama can mix fluorescent Tokyo interiors, daylight on a Kyoto temple exterior, and overcast Hokkaido landscapes inside the same act.

Our colorists work out of tuned grading suites in Tokyo and Osaka, aligned to Rec.709 and DCI-P3 reference. When feature scale or HDR mastering calls for it, sessions route through Imagica, Sony PCL, and OmnibusJapan. We take ARRIRAW, RED R3D, Sony RAW, Canon, ProRes, and DNxHD sources through a colour-managed chain. That chain holds each stop of dynamic range right from set.

Each job starts with a tech check that flags exposure, white balance, and tonal-range issues scene by scene. Primary correction then clears the casts. Secondary corrections lock shot-to-shot match across multi-camera setups. A final QC pass measures everything against broadcast-safe levels for your target platform.

We check loudness, luminance, chrominance, and gamut match with the waveform, vectorscope, and histogram. Targets cover NHK 4K/8K broadcast spec, Netflix Japan IMF, EBU, and SMPTE standards. The result is a clean, steady tech pass. The creative grade can then do real work instead of fighting source gaps.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Color correction balances exposure, clears color casts, and keeps shots even. Grading is the creative step that comes next, where we build the looks and styles you want. We finish correction first to set a clean base, then add the creative grades on top.

Can you match footage from different cameras?

Yes. Our team matches footage from many camera systems, each with its own color science. Whether you combine ARRI, RED, Sony, or Canon footage, we balance every source for seamless scene matching across the project.

How do you ensure broadcast compliance?

We read each shot on pro scopes such as the waveform, vectorscope, and histogram, backed by QC tools. These confirm that all footage meets broadcast-safe levels for your target platform. That covers luminance, chrominance, and gamut checks for specs like EBU R128, SMPTE, and platform rules.

What formats and resolutions do you support?

We handle all pro formats, including ARRIRAW, RED R3D, Sony RAW, ProRes, and DNxHD, from HD through 8K. Our color-managed pipeline keeps color true no matter the source format or delivery specs.

Productions in Japan 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.
