How do you prepare for the ‘Big Break’ color grading session?
I think we have all been in situations where a job arrives in the door that makes your jaw drop.
A phrase I would use is that it “feels above your pay grade” and you get the instant feeling of
“They really want me to grade this?”
They good news is that feeling of fear and excitement never goes away and it’s something that I’ve come to enjoy. It makes me feel like a rockstar musician about to go on stage and play the gig of a lifetime.
In a sense it’s actually quite similar to a band playing their first big gig… except we do it in the dark and without the room full of screaming fans.
These big jobs are the ones we aim for when we slave away for hours doing favours and freebies on in hope of getting an opportunity like this.
The scary thing is our performance on the day of the big grade can either make or break us.
The inspiration for this insight is quite close to my heart.
