About

Color workflow specialist who treats mounts and light as part of the image pipeline. I design stable, predictable studios for grading, VFX, and print proofing.

Core Beliefs

Consistency is image quality. Mechanical and environmental stability are as vital as gamut.

Background

During a grading session, a loose arm tolerance let my reference monitor micro-sway when I scrubbed the panel. Sub-perceptual motion shifted reflections and perceived blacks. After isolating mass, damping, and cable strain, stability returned. Precision isn’t just gamut; the mount and light path are part of the image.

Perspective

I favor stability, shielding, and verified cables over RGB flourishes or compact footprints.
