There’s no substitute for capturing it right on the day, but colour grading is the next best thing. We use our extensive expertise, along with strong artistic principles to help control the light in your film to create the right mood and smooth out on-set issues.

An often overlooked aspect of grading, texture is the ‘feel’ of the images. A common example is adding film grain to digital images to create an analog feel, but there is so much more. We have an arsenal of tools available to dial in the right amount of texture to complete the look.

Elevate your on-screen talent with subtle, tasteful enhancements, including natural-looking skin smoothing, eye brightening, and teeth whitening.

Get to know us
who we are
Distance Colour Studios was founded by Matt J. Hare, a colourist with over 16 years of experience within the post-production industry.
Having worked at well-known post-houses in London and Amsterdam, alongside many great directors, cinematographers and creatives, he decided to set up his own boutique, one which recognised the fast-changing needs of clients and brands.
Good colour grading shouldn’t be needlessly complex or expensive.
The truth is, modern remote workflows let us cut out a lot of the usual overheads. That means you get the same top-tier talent and visuals you'd expect from a big studio, but without the traditional fuss and hefty price tag. We're passionate about the craft and we're here to make sure your project looks its absolute best, simply and smartly.
