Modern filmmaking has revolutionised the way in which rushes can be viewed – and the speed with which they can be made ready for viewing after acquisition.

The quality of UK based Computer Generated Imagery and Visual FX talent is a significant draw to productions choosing to shoot and post in this country. The heart of the UK’s CGI/VFX community is located in Soho, Central London.

Shrinking production timelines can dictate that shoot and post schedules overlap – with the two operations happening remotely from one another. This creates a significant logistical challenge for the filmmaker wishing to oversee both.

Whether you require a one-light, best-light or a full colour correction service on single shots or entire movies or projects, you can be confident that your creative and technical goals are realised at Pinewood.

We provide a fully calibrated workflow incorporating 3D lookup tables for film emulation (LUTs) if required working with both monitors and projection all of which can be linked back to our screening services for full review.

Picture Post processes most often happen in relatively small suites using screens at close proximity to the creative and technical operators.

Therefore, when dailies, online editorial work, CGI/VFX shots, graded output and final program is reviewed, most filmmakers wish to sign off their work in a space that mirrors the theatres in which an audience will see it.

Physical Asset Transfer and Electronic Asset Migration services

Physical Asset Transfer

Content owners face ongoing challenges in order to commercialise their archived assets. Whilst carefully controlled storage conditions can help to stabilise historic media, physical assets in particular do deteriorate over time.

Many of our clients ask us to regularly assess their archived media in order to recommend the best strategy to preserve it – and consequently to enable it to be appreciated by a new audience.
