====
Experienced colorist Daniel Stonehouse owns and co-founded the boutique color grading studio Crayon in Melbourne, Australia. Throughout my detailed conversation with Dan, he shares a wealth of experience and practical insight on the art, craft, and business of color grading and what it takes to run a successful modern boutique shop.

During our conversation, Dan emphasized adaptability, continuous learning, dedication, and a holistic approach to becoming an effective colorist.

To this point, Dan offers some excellent wisdom to anyone managing color grading clients from ‘discovery to delivery’. You should consider perfecting the grading session and the lengthy discussions, negotiations, and planning preceding it. Plus, there are after-session processes, such as invoicing and generating visuals for promotion.
