I'm glad something like this exist, finding information on how to become a colorist and where to look is pretty scarce. Thanks all.

Hi Sea,

just updated the info about the group. I switched the group to a fan page in Facebook since there is better interactivity and feedback. follows the link:

Hello everyone, thanks so much for the information you've included in this thread. I've recently become interested in pursuing work as a colorist, as opposed to (or maybe in addition to?) a film editor. Can anyone recommend a program that could serve as an intro to the field? I was looking into Adobe After Effects, I've heard good things about it, but has anyone had more success with something else? Thanks!

Anyone tried Apple Color?

I worked at Target in the media production dept as their colorist for a while and their pipeline was 99% FCP and 1% DI. I used Apple Color as my main tool.

Color is a very efficient grading software and works very well.
