Encore and Level 3 Post Use DaVinci Resolve for Some of the Biggest Fall TV Shows Fremont, CA - October 16, 2013 - Blackmagic Design today announced that Los Angeles based sister post production companies Encore and Level 3 Post, both part of the Deluxe Creative Services Group, are using DaVinci Resolve for color grading on some of the biggest prime time television programs of the 2013 American fall television schedule. This includes returning hit shows such as Once Upon a Time and Elementary and new shows such as Once Upon a Time in Wonderland.
DaVinci Resolve, the worlds most advanced color correction tool, is the standard for high end post production workflows and color correction in film, television programs and global commercial campaigns, and is continuing to grow in its use to get new shows ready for their fall premiers and ongoing weekly shows.
For George Manno, Senior Colorist at Level 3 Post, shows like Once Upon a Time and now Once Upon a Time in Wonderland represent a colorists dream. The fantasy and regular worlds have very different looks, he notes. We get to make nights a really, deep blue and greens in a forest almost unnatural in the way they pop. Its freeing and allows us to really dig in and try some things that a more typical show wouldnt let you do. We get to see how far we can twist an image from norm.
The sister companies fall TV shows using DaVinci Resolve include:
Once Upon a Time: George Manno, Colorist, Level 3 Post
Once Upon a Time In Wonderland: George Manno, Colorist, Level 3 Post
Elementary: Tony D'Amore, Colorist, Encore
About DaVinci Resolve Blackmagic Design's DaVinci Resolve is the world's highest performance on set, editing and color correction solution for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux computers. DaVinci Resolve supports more real time color correction than any other system because it's not limited by the performance of the computer it's running on. DaVinci Resolve eliminates this performance barrier because it's based on a cluster of high performance GPU cards, so all processing is always real time. DaVinci Resolve has the power of a true real time performance solution so handles complex color grades even when using dozens of primaries, secondaries, Power Windows , multi point tracking, blurs, and more. DaVinci Resolve provides incredible performance in a low cost solution which can be easily upgraded by adding extra GPUs for supercomputer power to handle 4K resolutions, stereoscopic 3D and real time grading direct from raw camera files such as ARRI RAW, RED RAW and Sony RAW files which can be handled with ease.
