Jury selects 25 nominees across six categories - winners to be announced at EnergaCAMERIMAGE on 17 November
FilmLight has revealed the nominees for the 2024 FilmLight Colour Awards. In their fourth year, the awards attracted over 500 entries from 46 countries across the globe and the independent jury of cinematographers, colourists and creatives have now revealed the names of the 25 colourists shortlisted across the six categories.
Ahead of casting their final votes, the 2024 jury gathered to discuss the entries. During the discussion, George Miller, 2024 Jury Guest of Honour, talked to Jury President, Mandy Walker, and other jurors, about his evolving relationship with colour.
For the films I work on, we tend to get the colourist involved early, says Miller. The biggest problem, I think, is that visual effects can be so widespread - with people from all over the planet working on it. With this, there's a risk of losing cohesion, and the colourist is the nexus of all these interactions. This is why I am so excited to be doing this and seeing all the wonderful work that is being completed across so many different platforms and media - it is a very significant moment and one that will develop even more.
