The film had an ACES color workflow. Explains, Pablo Garcia Soriano, Head of Color at Mission, “The use of ACES was proposed from the very early stages of the workflow discussions. Venice and the X-OCN 16bit linear recording format made it very easy to implement the color system and provided results which preserved the creative intend through the whole workflow process.”
