What does it take to color an entire afterlife? In this episode of Filmmaker Mixer, we’re joined by colorist and Elemental Post co-creator David Tomiak to break down his work on A24’s Eternity. David discusses collaborating from pre-production, drawing from mid-century cinema, building custom film grain inspired by early Eastman stock, and balancing playful detail with visual consistency. We dive into standout scenes, world-building through color, and how early color decisions can save indie films in post. Perfect for filmmakers interested in color grading, post-production workflow, and creative collaboration.
