Reviews
A course by Sonia Abellán Avilés
Sonia initially started out in the graphic design field, but it didn't take her long to realize that it was moving images that really inspired her. She undertook a variety of different audiovisual production and post-production roles before deciding to specialize in color grading.
She currently works on a freelance basis, although she spent four years at the El Colorado studio, where she participated in the color grading for film and television projects such as Villaviciosa de al lado, Morir, Sara's Notebook, and the series Pulsaciones. She has also colored documentaries, programs such as Wild Frank, short films like Piscina, and countless commercials.

La mia valutazione non è pienamente positiva, risulta a mio avviso poco chiaro e molto dispersivo. Troppo carente nelle spiegazioni in buona parte degli argomenti trattati. Non lo consiglio.
