Description

This book, written by a leading expert in the field of visual effects, demystifies the complex subject of color science and how it should be managed from project ideation to completion.

Readers will not only learn how things work, their capabilities and limitations, but also the Color Science that goes along with it, in an accessible and informative manner. Starting in the Real World with an understanding of light and our human perception of it, the book then explores how digital cameras "see" the scene and digitize it. From the capture of these images, the Author then explores the fundamental concerns of storage, editing and managing color images, including with OCIO and ACES.

Written for the professional Photographer, Cinematographer, visual effects, motion graphics or CG artist, Editor and Colorist, this book will provide you with knowledge of the upstream and downstream technology to your job that will not only give you a competitive advantage and help you to make better images while giving you a real-world working knowledge of Color Science.

Absolutely Fantastic

This was my first time ordering from SciFier but it definitely won't be my last. When it comes to buying books online the packaging needs to be good, SciFier were great they used bubble wrap to make sure they arrived perfect. Amazing range of books that majority are lower priced than most book retailers. Wonderful service, I'll definitely be recommending to everyone. Thank you.
