In this episode of The Offset Podcast, we’re exploring another viewer/listener submitted question - this time from a viewer named Camilo.

Camilo asks about the balance as a colorist of being a technician vs an artist. Thanks Camilo for the topic - it’s a deep one!

Specifics topics we explore in this episode include:

  • Color grading IS technical, but its ALSO very creative. Most colorists aren't exclusively one or the other
  • How you got into post/color plays a large role in how you see yourself and others seen you
  • How you can fill your technical/creative gaps with conceptual thinking
  • The colorist as a fulcrum in a creative/technical seesaw
  • How the pressures of having to 'invent images' vs respecting photography brings technician vs artistry to the forefront
  • How video/film projects have less diversity of approach than other artistic mediums
  • The power of experimental projects
  • Learning to understand your own personal strengths
