The Color Timer podcast aims to speak with professionals who work with color.

Yet, so often, I fall into the habit of speaking with professionals closer to my field of film and television, but I really do want to cast the further and learn from professionals working in other disciplines—that is what we are doing in this episode!

Anna Evans is a contemporary New Zealand landscape painter, children’s book illustrator, mural painter, and games artist.

With so many talents at her disposal, who better to learn about color from?

I discovered Anna while watching an Instagram video she made about color mixing that challenges some of the fundamental things we learned in art class as children. I was totally hooked by the way Anna explained things.

Her passion for color and the threads of science that keep popping up throughout our conversation make this an episode for both technicians and artists. Anna’s work is beautiful, so after listening to our chat, please check it out through the links below.

It made me wonder, whose art most inspires and provokes you to try new color grading techniques?

Today, I will be speaking to Jason Bowdach. Jason is a fellow contributor here on Mixing Light. He is a colorist and online editor with an impressive CV that includes major networks such as Fox and Disney. Jason creates a suite of colorist tools through his company, PixelTools. Jason shares what inspires him to create software offerings for the industry and his approach to a new project. He also has an interesting view on AI / Machine Learning and its likely impact on our industry.

This is putting the shoe on the other foot at last. Jason has his very cool podcast, Color & Coffee, on which I was a guest, so now it’s time for Jason to answer some of my questions! Outside of Pixel Tools and his own grading work, Jason also teaches about color and post-workflow, so he keeps fairly busy, to say the least.

It is my absolute pleasure to speak with the Associate Professor in Color Science from the Rochester Institute of Technology, Mr. Michael Murdoch. Our conversation covered the gamut of all things color:

- Perception
- Quantifying color
- Image science
- Film stocks
- Display technology
- Careers in the field of color research
- Augmented reality
- His position as the Director of the Munsell Color Science Laboratory
- The one color the universe doesn’t need

I may have broken my sand timer rule repeatedly to keep this conversation going. But this is undoubtedly a perfect conversation for the Color Timer Podcast – I hope you enjoy it!

I worked with Kali Bateman many years ago in Australia, and I jumped at the opportunity to speak with both her and Emily about the relationship between the Colorist and Color Assistant and their new venture, 'The Colour Suite'. (Yes, that’s how Color is spelled in other parts of the world!)

Kali Bateman is a Senior Colorist for film and television and has been involved with many amazing projects, including Venom: Let There Be Carnage, Jungle Cruise, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Wonder Woman: 1984, and Baz Luhrman’s masterpiece Elvis.

Emily Reid began her career as a camera assistant and freelance cinematographer. She crossed over into post-production as an assistant colorist. Under Kali’s supervision, Emily has grown into the role of Colorist and led numerous grading projects.

Peter Doyle is a colorist like no other. To write an introduction for a man who really doesn’t need an introduction is challenging. I’ve followed Peter Doyle’s career for the past two decades, ever since the release of The Lord of the Rings Trilogy.

During our conversation, Peter discusses the role of a colorist within the creative team, how to use language to put (new) filmmakers at ease, appreciating the cultural context of color, and a colorist’s explanation of metameric failure within the rise of laser projectors.

For the uninitiated, Peter Doyle is a supervising colorist at PostWorks NY, whose 70+ credits include The Tragedy of Macbeth, Paddington 2, The Edge of Tomorrow, Inside Llewyn Davis, and many more!

I was drawn toward Nina’s work because of her book, “Color Therapy”. 

After researching further, I discovered that Nina works with Color Energy. This energy, or aura, is considered an unseen field of energy surrounding a person’s physical body. These auras are affected by mood and emotional state.

Nina has a career spanning 40 years; she has studied Spiritual Philosophy, Meditation, various forms of bodywork and energy healing – and much more!

During our 15-minute conversation, we speak about what it was like as a child to understand what she was seeing, her determination to learn more about that, and the lifelong journey this took her on.
