Refine Your Vision.

Elevating Every Frame.

About Me

I am a professional colourist, editor and videographer based in the North West of England however I can travel and offer remote grading world wide for any and all projects. With over 14 years experience in moving images, having worked on projects of all levels, from feature films and HETV through to broadcast, short films, advertisements and music videos, I love my craft and the creative project, and want to help you realise your vision.

Alistair Davidson

My career started at Blackmagic Design where I worked in technical support across all products, from cameras and broadcast through to film scanning and post production before becoming the lead specialist for DaVinci Resolve support for the EMEA region. I then moved into freelance work running a small production company before moving into a dailies department, working as an assistant colourist and finally my current role.

Last day in Naples before crashing back to reality. Up early and round Pompeii, followed by a wander and dinner in the Spanish Quarter.
Had an incredible time at @mhairiedavidson wedding. Happy to let someone else finally be responsible for my sister (sorry not sorry Chris).
Finally made it to Villa Cimbrone. This many Scots in the Italian heat, what could go wrong.
There are worse ways to start a Sunday. Off to Italy for @mhairiedavidson wedding with @currik49, @shonad3361 and @icd59. The only time I'll ever get to experience a private jet unless I take up black market organ harvesting as a profession.

Some talking head stills from @channel4 Social Media Monsters, another of the projects I've graded since joining @core_post. I spend a lot of my days with true crime podcasts on in the suite so getting to work on a show like this was really fun but t

This week's stills come from season 2 of @channel5_tv Trauma Room One. This was The first big documentary series I'd ever graded and was a fun learning experience, although not for the squeamish. #traumaroomone #davinciresolve #colorist #colourist #
