Tom Poole

Tom is my colorist at Company 3 in NYC.  We are doing the final color correct for The Cobbler.  Tom is totally killing it.  My goal in showbiz is to surround myself with as many people as I can who are much better than me at their jobs.   Tom joins a long but select list, headed by Billy Miller, of people whose work makes mine enormously better.  The art of manipulating these digital files in a way that re-creates and even enhances the reality they are meant to have captured is so new, so specific and so rapidly evolving that is hard to find people who are really good at it and even harder to find people who share your vision in it.  Tom shares my obsession with finding the most and prettiest color complexity that is hidden deep in the ugly grey/blue RAW files he is handed.  It is such a pleasure to watch a true artist work.  Thanks Tom.
