An introduction to the basic colour science needed for monitor calibration and colour managed workflows. Focus is on practical use rather than math! Find out about delivery formats, display technologies and the difference between TVs and reference displays. Experience monitor calibration in a practical session. Colorists refer to their main grading display as “The God Monitor” and there is no doubt that color enhancement is only useful if the display is calibrated in a meaningful way. Discover what equipment you need to perform calibration on monitors and projectors and how to choose from the diverse products on the market. Color science 101 is ideal for anyone who uses a display for critical viewing decisions, including DITs, colorists, editors and VFX artists. No prior knowledge is assumed, and by the end of the two days everyone should understand VT 709, BT1886, BT2020, BT2084, BT2100, and more, as well as being able to set up and check a display device. Topics include basic color science, color gamuts, calibration software and probes, practical calibration, profiles and LUTs. Calman software is used in this class. If you are considering investing in display or calibration equipment this course is for you. This class is usually taken before CA201: Color Managed Workflows and CA301: HDR Colorist Masterclass.
