Director Doug Naylor guides actor Richard Woo through a scene. stock,” he notes. “I thought they looked very natural.” In turn, Naylor was pleased to find that the One’s 4K mode allowed him to pull more than one angle out of each shot during the edit. “We could zoom in 200 percent on any frame,” he recalls. This allowed the filmmakers to turn three shots into two shots, two shots into singles and singles into close-ups; this was especially beneficial given that the crew had 14 days to shoot all three episodes. Seymour’s team rendered the finished shots as DPX files, which were sent to London via Sohonet for the final online at Evolutions, where a Baselight was used. For the non-visual-effects material, colorist Nick Adams was able to access the original media at full resolution. (Most shots were 2K, but some were 4K.) James Hunter, chief engineer at Evolutions, notes, “Working natively with the Red rushes gives you a lot more flexibility in the grade. In general, grades aren’t done from rushes in long-form TV post. People convert from Red to DPX and essentially bake in a first-light telecine equivalent. That was probably the most important aspect of us changing the traditional workflow; it has a lot of benefits for all formats.” Seymour adds, “We worked with the look Andy established on set, except for some tricky shots where we did a second special-effects grade for a technical reason, normally detail for keying.” Martin was initially concerned that the image’s blacks might wash out to a gray somewhere along the workflow, but that fear never materialized. “I was gobsmacked by the density of the blacks,” he says. “They really are very rich.” He was also surprised at how little grain and noise was in the image. “At times, it was almost too clean, but I would much rather have that than the alternative!” Once the episodes were finished, production rented a cinema to screen them for the cast and crew. Naylor notes that one of the great surprises for the actors was seeing their work combined with the virtual sets; during the shoot, they were somewhat baffled by the massive greenscreen. “It was very different from how we used to shoot the show,” says the director. “In its time, Red Dwarf was responsible for some less-than-brilliant greenscreen shots — because of budget, not talent — so they were right to be dubious.
