Randi Altman built postPerspective from the ground up, working as Editor-in-Chief after founding the Leading Digital Magazine for the Post Production & Production communities 11 years ago. She has found her niche in interviewing the guys behind the screens, the ones who help bring all the magic together in post. The vision was to create an Architectural Digest of the films you see - 'how do you create these big gorgeous things but with tools that you can afford. I wanted to show what the big guys were doing to encourage the smaller guys that they could do that as well'. From Editors on Netflix hits to Colorists on your favourite blockbusters, Randi shares who she was most excited to interview, how the technology has changed in the time she's been in the industry and whether she would go into this world herself… ‘Create Incredible’ has now changed to ‘Filmtalkz’, but fear not, all episodes are still available here.

Filmtalkz is joined by documentarian, filmmaker, archivist, and founder of Dvarchive, Rick Ray. Having adopted a solo-traveller lifestyle early on, Rick has explored the far reaches of the world with his camera.

We all love to watch a classic nature documentary, there’s nothing quite like it - especially for Picture Shop’s Colorist Dan Gill. BBC’s 'Blue Planet II' was what first got him inspired, and now he’s grading hit shows like Netflix’s Our Great National Parks, Wild Babies, Surviving Paradise: A Family Tale and BBC Two’s Natural World: Florida - America’s Animal Paradise. Since the show is filmed over many months, lots of different shots are put together which might look different in tone and color, and Dan uses Nucoda to make seamless transitions for an overall smooth and stunning look into our natural world.
Host Sophia Stanford takes a trip to his studio in Bristol and gets down to business, chatting about how he got into the industry (with the intention to work in Audio Production!), working with Aidan Farrell on TV favourites like Downton Abbey and Utopia, and what it’s like knowing Barack Obama has narrated alongside your work.

This year’s Cannes Camera D’Or winner, ‘Inside The Yellow Cocoon Shell’ (2023), has been hailed by Variety for its ‘meticulous, intricately staggered compositions (that) paint in the rich, wet greens of the surrounding forest, the mineral blues of weather-heavy skies and the interrupting gauze of mist over everything...’
It’s a poignant tale of grief and love, a man must return his nephew to his rural village in Vietnam whilst grappling with his own ghosts and desires.
Color and symbolism were key - this is where Mark Song comes in. As a Senior Colorist and Finishing Artist for Mocha Chai in Singapore, he was able to translate what the Director felt through color despite speaking different languages and even wrote a two page essay when he first watched it to understand its meaning.
Join us on the ‘Create Incredible’ podcast to hear about how he experiments with tropes in film to subvert genre expectations, what its been like working on an in house project, and his experience on other projects like ‘Shadows’ (2020) which was delayed for years because of Covid.
