Studio Setup

CVETMET Color Grading Studio uses dedicated, studio-managed infrastructure to support reliable remote collaboration, file transfers, and live grading sessions.

Remote Services

Our remote workflow is supported by dedicated infrastructure managed by CVETMET:

  • a studio-managed FTP server for transferring source media and final deliverables;
  • dedicated server infrastructure for live remote grading sessions and the review of work-in-progress versions.

Grading Workstation

  • Workstation: Apple MacBook Pro with M3 Max
  • Calibrated Primary Grading Display: LG G4 OLED
  • Control Surface: Blackmagic Design Micro Color Panel
  • Video Monitoring: Blackmagic Design UltraStudio Monitor 3G
