Elysium: Crafting the Future in DI

DI, VFX and ACES color management, seamlessly integrated for Elysium's 4K finish

Following the success of the presentation in Hollywood, FilmLight, Dolby and Central are excited to bring Crafting the Future to Vancouver.

Discover how District 9 director, Neill Blomkamp, worked with Vancouver-based post facility, Central, on the visionary look and innovative finishing process of Elysium.

Join lead colorist, Andrea Chlebak, to step through the process of pre-visualizing Elysium’s two worlds, pre-grading VFX plates, and realizing the final aesthetic that was delivered to theaters worldwide – all live with FilmLight's Baselight.

Using interactive scenes from the movie, Chris Davies, Director of Operations at Central and Peter Postma, Managing Director of FilmLight Americas, will provide insight into the use of ACES, its challenges and advantages, as well as how it influenced the creative process with the director.

The event will also look at the impact of simultaneously delivering for 4K digital and film projection, large format (IMAX), and home video.

Doors open at 6:30pm with reception

Event begins at 7:15pm
