UK film production company 1185 Films is partnering with Soho-based editing company 25editors, founded by Ray Stevens, on the launch of a new industry talent roster.
1185 Talent will include directors, editors, colourists, VFX artists and photographers.
Kevin Shaw, CSI, colour management specialist from Finalcolor, is among the talent joining the company’s roster. He has been working with 1185 Films’ founder Nick Franco to develop a streamlined DCI SDR and HDR workflow using Dolby Vision and the Sony HX310 4k HDR monitor.
Speaking about the launch, Franco said: “I’ve known Ray Stevens for a long time and he’s one of the very best in the business. Our joint experience and expertise are set to be a winning combination and I’m excited about the potential of 1185 Talent.”
Stevens added: “1185 Talent will lead the way in our industry with award-winning directors, editors, colourists, VFX and photographers. I’m excited to work closely alongside Nick Franco and to be a part of this new venture. Our business will shake up the way talent can be sourced and offer the very best roster of people.”
