CHROMATICNO

● STUDIO

A dark room for honest colour.

CHROMATIC is a Norwegian colour grading and visual effects studio on Prinsens gate in Trondheim. We work where the picture gets finished: after the edit, before delivery.

A grading room should be boring – neutral walls, calibrated reference, controlled light – so the picture can be the opposite. That is where everything we do starts.

We believe in few, deliberate moves. A look has to survive a phone in sunlight and a cinema screen. So we always check against scopes, not just the eye.

We do not publish client lists or credits on this site. The images you see here are illustrations made to show principles.

Principles

  1. 01

    Scopes before taste

    Waveform and vectorscope set the limits. Taste decides the rest.

  2. 02

    Skin tones are sacred

    However far the look goes, people should look like people.

  3. 03

    Invisible effects

    The best VFX is the kind nobody mentions: removed rigs, calm sky replacements, clean screens.

  4. 04

    Delivery is part of the look

    SDR, HDR and social formats are planned from the start – not afterwards.
