Brief
Picture post-production on a three-part series that explores Mexico’s wildlife, landscape and culture across its mountains, tropical forests and deserts.

How it was done
Colourist Simon Bland graded the series using Autodesk Lustre, adding bold colours to complement the natural vibrancy and rich tones of Mexico. As each episode is set in a different environment – forests, mountains and deserts – he also spent time developing a unique identity for each location to emphasise the differences, while still maintaining a consistent look across the series. Franz Ketterer completed the online edit. The post-producer was Miles Hall, with Will Foxall supervising the workflow. Wounded Buffalo completed the audio post-production work and Michael Kruk composed the music.
