Philosophy

The company distinguishes itself by providing state-of-the-art file-based hardware and software solutions configured to enhance the creative process. More specifically, Light Iron offers post production solutions that minimize time, maximize image fidelity, and increase filmmakers’ creative control over their projects, all at a fraction of the cost typically charged by heavy iron post production facilities.

One way to enhance the filmmaking process is by removing the traditional “brick and mortar” facility from the post production process, which allows for instantaneous feedback, improved collaboration, and lower costs. Mobile “data-cine” via OUTPOST and mobile DI solutions are just some examples of how Light Iron is using new tools and talent to alter the way features, episodic television, and commercials are being made.

New talent, new tools, and new processes are effective only when offered in conjunction with training, guidance, and support. It is for this reason that education is one of Light Iron’s cornerstones. By offering seminars and hands-on workshops, developing and integrating workflows, and providing project supervision and consultation, Light Iron can ensure that clients are empowered to fully leverage advancements in the filmmaking process.
