ABOUT RANDY STARNES:
Randy Starnes has been a member of the postproduction industry since 1981, and a Colorist since 1983. In addition to the TV projects cited above, he has also contributed his digital skills during his career to dozens of other popular TV shows including Scandal, Army Wives, Bones, Laguna Beach, NYPD Blue, The Visitor, Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, Northern Exposure, and many others.
Starnes began his career working on regional and national commercials, as well as TV movies, documentaries, short films, and the PBS series Nova, before moving to Los Angeles in 1991 where he began specializing as a colorist for television. An early user of the Spirit Data Cine, Starnes was invited, along with five other American colorists, to visit the factory in Germany, where he was asked to provide feedback on a new film-to-data system. This was the advent of file based, film originated, postproduction.
Starnes has held several managerial positions with various post companies in Los Angeles, including serving as Director of Telecine at Digital Magic, The Post Group, Encore Video, and Hollywood Digital. Moving to New York in 1999, he consulted in building a new telecine department for Shooting Gallery/Gun for Hire in NYC. Working with engineer Thoma Thurau, Starnes oversaw the design and implementation of a three-telecine postproduction facility in Manhattan. Today, that site is known as Technicolor's Leroy Street facility.
Starnes returned to California in 2000 as Vice President/Director of Telecine at Westwind Media. That year, NYPD Blue became ABC's first high-definition primetime series - it was followed the next season by another ABC HD series, The Practice. In 2003, Starnes formed a business servicing clients with a DaVinci 2k color corrector placed inside West Post Digital, a boutique post facility. There, Starnes offered services to the rapidly growing reality programming industry, with clients including MTV, and such TV shows as Making the Video, Punk'd, Laguna Beach, The Real O.C., and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, among them.
In 2005, Starnes was hired back at Westwind Media as General Manager and Supervising Colorist. A native of Decatur, Georgia, Starnes served in the Marine Corps before beginning his career with a Georgia television station. He got his start in postproduction with VTA Atlanta, developer of the Da Vinci color correction system.
