This class teaches basic colour science and colour spaces, followed by a practical workflow for setting up, and calibrating displays.

Understand rec709, BT1886, BT2020, BT2084, BT2100, and more, and experience setting up and checking a display.

Learn what equipment you need to perform calibration on monitors and projectors and how to choose from the diverse products on the market.

Colour science 101 is ideal for anyone who uses a display for critical viewing decisions, including DITs, colourists, editors and VFX artists. No prior knowledge is assumed, and by the end of the two days everyone should understand rec709, BT1886, BT2020, BT2084, BT2100 and more, as well as being able to set up and check a display device.

Topics include basic colour science, colour gamuts, calibration software and probes, practical calibration, profiles and LUTs. Calman software is used in this class. If you are considering investing in calibration equipment this course is for you.

Kevin Shaw is also presenting Intro to ACES and the HDR Colour Masterclass in the same week. This is a good companion class to precede HDR.
