This course introduces the process of finishing a film. Students will learn the normal workflow in post-production of converting all the original footage to lower resolution proxies for editing. Students will use industry-standard software to conform these proxies back to the original footage and prepare the footage for final color correction.

This course will cover the technical as well as the aesthetics of film finishing with the use of professional monitoring equipment and industry-based control panels
