Hi, I’m Nick Kastanis, a Toronto-based emerging colourist and post-production assistant. I’ve built hands-on experience across feature, narrative, documentary, and music video workflows, with a focus on ACES color space and DaVinci Wide Gamut pipelines in Resolve. My background in cinematography and camera departments informs my on-set decisions and how I translate those choices into finishing. In addition to colour and finishing, I’ve done sound editing and mixing, as well as directing and producing, and I’m passionate about delivering festival-ready masters on time.…Hi, I’m Nick Kastanis, a Toronto-based emerging colourist and post-production assistant.
