Typing out my response, I referred to this as getting to the “Tao of Color Grading” ( Times have changed. Every post house I ever worked at has gone out of business (except for HBO Studios, which will exist for as long as pay TV exists). Those post houses are the victims of guys like me; we’d drop out, start a competing boutique with nothing more than a Mac, Kona card, and tiny (or no) leases. We’d offer equivalent quality at ridiculous prices and treat every client like a jewel. Tao Of Color Grading.com . By day, I run Fini.tv – a boutique color grading & finishing shop.

This page is designed to help our readers get to know Flanders Scientific by providing information and resources we’ve found interesting, educational, and helpful. The Tao Of Color chooses our Sponsors very carefully. And we limit their numbers (no more than four at any given time). They must serve the post-production community. They must provide extremely good value at a good price. And we must have done business with them in the past – and been happy with our results – before considering them as a Tao of Color Sponsor. Of course, we don’t just choose our sponsors, they also choose us – from among many companies who want to do business with them. And since resources are tight these days, marketing budgets must be carefully allocated.

They keep their prices low by only offering their displays direct-to-customer, forgoing the dealer network (and eliminating those costs). We put together some links to help you decide if an FSI Monitor is right for you. If this website has helped you make your purchasing decision – or telling them directly: The Tao of Color sent you!

I don’t know of any confirmed sales resulting from click throughs from your site/newsletter, but I have had a handful of people specifically thank me for supporting the Tao and I take that as a very good sign.” We are really psyched that these subscribers stay with us! And over half of those unsubscribes were initiated by us… trimming out recipients that aren’t interacting with the Newsletter. We strive for engagement and experiment with different ways of presenting stories to help drive click-throughs. After all – Here are the two important pieces of information they provide at sign-up: 58% are post-production professionals working on Apple Color, Avid (across Media Composer, DS, and Symphony), DaVinci Resolve, or the catch-all for high-end systems – ‘Big Iron’. I work hard to notice all sorts of interesting little tidbits, news items, and links related to the art, craft, and business of professional color grading. As I run into them I quickly save them off.
