color grading
Starting in pre-production and during test shoots, our team helps you design and refine your look and ensure that it is communicated correctly throughout production and dailies and then into post production. Once you sit down in our in-house Davinci Resolve theater with a calibrated Barco DCI Projector to start your final DI grading, you’ll be comfortable knowing that everyone’s on the same page.
We can even grade camera tests or build a toolbox of shooting LUTs to help you get the best looking footage possible.
We have 2 Resolve colour grading suites with the latest calibrated monitoring allowing our grading team to work at resolutions from HD up to 4K. All suites are connected to a high-speed SAN and supported by several resolve assist stations, allowing imports/exports to happen in the background without interrupting the session.
vfx
Imagination is always in play during a creative process. Especially when you need to envision something which either isn’t there at all or shouldn’t be there in the first place. Enter visual effects or the art of “see you later”.
Our VFX department’s services range from on-set VFX supervision and fixits to the creative and technical execution of visual effects sequences. We offer services ranging from camera-tracking to compositing, matte paintings to full CG-shots, title design to motion graphics and 2D/3D effects.

Every story moves to its own rhythm, and editing in post-production can help your story find that flow.

Production
Businesses investing in productions in Belgium and Flanders receive a considerable tax deduction. The tax shelter’s incentive comes in the form of a reduction of taxable profits. It is open to Belgian productions as well as international co-productions with Belgium-based companies. Highlighting the measure’s success: between 2004 and 2016, there has been more than EUR 1.5 billion worth of tax shelter investments.
Another reason Belgium is an ideal spot when it comes to shooting: it’s small enough you drive across the whole country in a day while also being extremely diverse in terms of landscape and inhabitants. You will be delighted and charmed by our multilingual and competent production sector.
