It’s Coming – Skystorm Productions, USA Networks & WWE
Skystorm USA Networks WWE promo is coming soon—discover how precise monitor calibration and in-house post production made our behind-the-scenes process seamless. We are pleased to announce that we have been working with Black Spot on a USA Networks promo for the WWE to be released later this month. Stay tuned and follow us for more teasers and the full commercial release.
Proper Monitoring as a Tool in Consistent Lighting
Parts of our lighting process are guided by monitor calibration. We use Scientific Flanders monitors heavily in all areas of pre-light and actual production. Some of the most useful tools we have found are things like false color, histograms and RGB parade. These insights give us a full view of our production space that aren’t visible to the naked eye. If you have seen our pre-production process, you know that we look at everything from the view of the camera to ensure quality.
Input from Post Production on Camera Profiles
Our post production supervisor often comes in on a new series production during the planning phase to put eyes on what our final output will be. We have been able to use this insight to make decisions on coloring in camera. Burned in color can be a great solution for high volume video, but not a choice to be taken lightly as it does not give as much latitude as shooting in log. This is where having an experienced and talented crew becomes even more of a priority.
A Full Service Production Solution for Video Consistency
It was our conscious strategy to become a full service commercial production company that could handle any video production from end to end. In keeping all areas of production in-house it ensures that all of our production divisions are able to communicate during all stages of a shoot. Without this setup, post production would not usually be able to step into pre-production to pinpoint areas that could speed up workflow for when the raw footage is handed over for editing. This allows for quality and speed – a combination that is rarely found in any project in commercial production.
