“The power and flexibility of Mistika allows me to focus on what I need to deliver creatively and technically at ONSIGHT, whether in 2D, 3D or 4K, for quality results.”
David Gonzalez Lozano, Mistika Colourist & Online Editor, ONSIGHT, London
London, 29 August 2013 –
SGO congratulates ONSIGHT on yet another of its talented Mistika Colourists and Online Editors, David Gonzalez Lozano being selected for the sought-after Broadcast’s Hot Shot recognition awards. David was chosen as one of the “Broadcast 2013 Hot Shots” this month, as nominated by the team at ONSIGHT. It is an accolade that reflects the acknowledgement and recognition from the industry’s most prominent platforms of the professionalism ONSIGHT’s post production team in Soho expounds. ONSIGHT’s Mistika Colourist Andy Lee made the Broadcast Hot 100 last year as well.
The comments from the 22nd August 2013 Broadcast Magazine issue in their CRAFT & POST section read as follows below:
“David Gonzalez Lozano 28 – Colourist and Online Editor, ONSIGHT
Following the colour grade of First, The Official Film of the London 2012 Olympic Games, Director Caroline Rowland praised David for having “the rare ability to translate verbal descriptions into cinematic light and shade”.
Cutting his teeth as a Mistika Operator in Spain, David’s tenacity for post brought him to London, where he has gone from Operator to one of ONSIGHT’s leading Colourists and Online Editors – with the BBC’s first 3D scripted drama, Mr Stink, under his belt, plus two of Sky’s Little Crackers.
He is also well versed in natural history – working on David Attenborough’s Micro Monsters 3D and Kingdom of Plants 3D for Sky, demonstrating his ability to correct 3D macro photography with a high degree of precision and expertise. ONSIGHT Chief Operating Officer Andy Shelley says: “He seems to welcome a challenge, taking technically complex projects in his stride.”
David Gonzalez Lozano states “The power and flexibility of Mistika allows me to focus on what I need to deliver creatively and technically at ONSIGHT, whether in 2D, 3D or 4K, for quality results. I am thrilled about making this year’s Broadcast Hot Shots.”
