Bryant Frazer of Studio Daily stuck around for a great interview from Deluxe VP of Editorial Services Jay Tilin and colorist Martin Zeichner about using HDR Deluxe Talks Dolby Vision, Daredevil and the Ins and Outs of HDR Editorial Services VP Jay Tilin & Colorist Martin Zeichner on Doing Research, Making Metadata, and Setting DPs at Ease Earlier this fall, Netflix summoned an array of technology journalists to New York to teach them about high dynamic range (HDR) technology, using the OTT operator’s range of Marvel superhero shows as a guide. The still-forthcoming Iron Fist is Netflix’s first Dolby Vision original show — that is, cinematographer Manuel Billeter is conceiving it for HDR from square one, rather than having it regraded after the SDR version has already been completed. But the case study for post-production was Daredevil, which was regraded for HDR by colorist Tony D’Amore at Deluxe’s L.A. facility. With reporters assembled in a grading suite at Deluxe in New York, D’Amore called in via telephone and oversaw a remote-grading session, controlling the New York office’s Da Vinci Resolve software from the other coast and explaining the Dolby Vision process.
