Colourist, Trevor Brown who carried out the tape to tape grade using Da Vinci Renaissance. He said: “Several levels of quality had to be maintained or generated to give the shows their ‘urban gothic’ look. Power Windows were used extensively to enhance the already spooky lighting to good effect, and also on some graphics orientated material which would otherwise have proved impossible.”
The programs were conformed and onlined by 4MC’s editors using Avid Symphony and a digital linear suite. Phil Key in Editbox added title treatments and graphic effects. (CD)
