Juan Ventura Pecellín, Colourist and Digital Effects Supervisor said: "We used SGO's Mistika technology throughout the various processes, ranging from pre-production, image-testing, LUTs inspection, ISO, densities and so forth. Once this process had been completed, all of the data prepared in the Mistika suite was then used during the following two months of shooting."

Mistika enabled us to work at resolutions of 4K, right up to 7K of complex aerial scenes for pre-visualisation and grading, including chase sequences, which involved intricate light elements that were worked on in post. Mistika's impressive capabilities helped us to achieve a 100% realistic look which was nothing less than spectacular."
