We were thrilled to see two of our wonderful Colourists, Holly and Julien , featured in LBB last week. Check out what colours tickle their fancy and how Soho and the French Alps inspire their work..
Holly Greig
Why do you love working in colour?
I really like that the whole mood can be altered by the grade, colour is so evocative and can really help guide the viewers perception of a film.
What inspires your work?
Anything really! Films, photos and art are the most common inspiration but also I am inspired by music and sounds. It could be films you've been watching recently or if the subject matter has a certain feel or the tunes youre playing whilst grading or even walking through Soho and the colourful characters you see on the way into work could even inspire you, thats the best thing about it.
Whats your favourite colour?
Probably burnt orange, the colour of sunsets, summers days and Pimms! But I am sure if you ask me again tomorrow I'll change my mind!
Julien Biard
Why do you love working in colour?
I love the idea that grading an image can have an impact on peoples feelings and emotions; how they will respond to the film and what they will take from it.
Editing and sound design are often considered to be the main influencers on mood and emotion of a film. I find grading equally as powerful, it can touch the subconscious of the viewer and thats what I love about it.
What inspires your work?
My work is mainly inspired by films, photographers and painters from all eras, but I'm also inspired by what is around me. I do spend a lot of my time in the French mountains where I grew up as a child as well as in the British countryside. These outdoor settings are probably my main source of inspiration.
Whats your favourite colour?
Apart from the colour of my favourite North London football team, I would say that I prefer a harmonious palette of colour rather than one single hue.
