Brief Provide picture and audio post-production services for the Channel 5 series in which participants swap modern comforts for Stone Age-style living.

How it was done Grading, picture and audio editing were all completed at Evolutions’ Soho facility. Senior colourist Nick Adams graded the episodes, ensuring that the Bulgarian wilderness, where the series was shot, was imbued with a grimy beauty. Chris Braaten mixed the series in Pro Tools v11 with Waves plug-ins and iZotope RX3. Noise from environmental factors such as wind and rain presented a big challenge in isolating important dialogue. A large dynamic range was kept to build intensity and keep the explosive nature of the music for the pre-titles. A punchy mix was required for the MTV version.
