HAL PICTURE

🎞️ Look Deep Dive — The Golden Age For The Golden Age, selected at Cannes Classics — @festivaldecannes 2026, the team used Diachromie and Diaphanie to tackle a very specific visual challenge: bringing together archival and contemporary footage, across both black-and-white and color images. Working with @martin_roux_cinematographer , AFC, the tools helped refine contrast, colorization, saturation and texture, while preserving the cinematic quality of the different materials. ➡️ Swipe to dive into the look development process.

10 films at @festivaldecannes crafted with #Diachromie & #Diaphanie. 10 different ways to build a look. With our tools, cinematographers and colorists developed structured, intentional looks, shaping color and texture as part of the storytelling process, not as a final layer. Different visions, different aesthetics, different workflows. One common approach: creative control, precision and consistency. We’re so proud to see these tools in the hands of such talented teams.

👉 From watchable images to meaningful ones. Before #Diachromie & #Diaphanie were even released, we presented their underlying philosophy at the AFC’s Look Development Seminar during Camerimage 2024. This session introduced our approach to look development: moving beyond LUTs, towards parametric tools and controlled behaviors. A structured, color-managed workflow, designed for more control, more artistic intention and more consistency. ➡ Watch the full conference on out YT channel (link in bio) #Cinematographer #ColorScience #Camerimage

No magic button here. Just a series of very intentional moves. This look was built step by step, with smart back-and-forths between modules. Contrast was shaped with a subtle bleach bypass feel, then refined through Color Tone Curves and 3D Vertex Transforms. Final touches included skin and lip selections, plus a global pass to bring everything together. 🎬 Crafting the look, one decision at a time, with #Diachromie & #Diaphanie __ #DavinciResolve #colorscience #Cinematography

☕️🥐 HAL Picture, la R&D au service de l’image et du look - CaféS Techniques 💬 Polyson Post Production ouvre le département HAL Picture début 2025 et accueille les plugins Diachromie et Diaphanie, développés par Paul Morin, Olivier Patron et Martin Roux, complétant ainsi le pôle R&D HAL aux côtés de HAL Audio. Diachromie et Diaphanie sont des outils de fabrication de look qui offrent aux directeurs de la photographie, aux étalonneurs, aux DIT et à tous les acteurs de la post-production, la possibilité de construire une palette couleurs et texture robuste et précise, embrassant l’intégralité d’un film pour lui conférer une identité visuelle unique. C’est finalement la création d’une émulsion numérique qui est à portée de main, éditable à volonté.�Ces deux outils s’appuient sur une recherche avancée en ingénierie de l’image et en science de la couleur, enrichissant ainsi l’expertise du laboratoire image de Polyson. Prix de l’Innovation César & Techniques 2026. 🖥 Retrouvez dès maintenant son intervention 👉🏼 Cliquez sur le lien dans la bio #CST #cafestechniques #IA #postproduction
