Boutique Mexican-based studio integrates Baselight alongside DaVinci Resolve - broadening creative and technical capabilities amid a wider phase of growth

WeMakeColor, the boutique color and post-production studio with facilities in Mexico City and Bogot , Colombia, has expanded its technical offering with the integration of Baselight for macOS, alongside a Slate control panel, marking a significant step in its evolution into a hybrid facility working across both DaVinci Resolve and Baselight platforms.

The investment reflects WeMakeColor's continued commitment to creative excellence and flexibility, enabling the studio to support a broader range of workflows and meet the growing demands of international productions. It also forms part of a broader phase of growth for the company, including the development of a larger, purpose-built facility in Mexico City, designed to support an expanded post-production offering.

WeMakeColor founder and lead colorist, Felipe Mart nez U, describes the move as both a creative and strategic decision:

Resolve has been a fundamental part of my journey as a colorist over the past decade - it shaped how I understand and work with images. But bringing Baselight into the studio challenges me in new ways. It invites a different way of thinking about color - one that's more intentional and precise. Together, they allow us to be more versatile and ultimately make me a more complete artist.

The move reflects Mart nez's ambition to operate as a hybrid colorist, combining the flexibility and accessibility of DaVinci Resolve with the precision and depth of Baselight. By working across both platforms, WeMakeColor is able to tailor its approach to the creative and technical demands of each project, particularly across long-form series and feature film work.

By integrating Baselight into its workflow, WeMakeColor positions itself among a select group of facilities capable of operating seamlessly across both industry-leading grading systems. The addition of the Baselight system further enhances the studio's grading environment, enabling a more tactile, precise, and customisable workflow for its artists.

In parallel, the studio continues to build its roster of international colorists and expand its talent and presence across the globe, supporting projects ranging from high-end series to feature films and restoration work.

For us, this isn't just about technology - it's about people and craft, adds Mart nez. We want to create an environment where colorists can work at the highest level, using the tools that best serve our customers and their story. As we continue to grow and expand our offering, this investment is an important step in that journey.
