Brief Complete picture post-production of the three-part adaptation of EF Benson’s novels.

How it was done To create a 1930s setting, Avid DS was used to remove all signs of the 21st century from footage. Some of the VFX work done by Nick Timms was to create a wintry setting for a summershot church scene – on-set snow was enhanced in Nuke and DS, using CG to create an ice-frosted shot of the church.

Colourist Jet Omoshebi’s grade completed the Christmas look with a de-spill of green elements. Nuke X, Avid DS, After Effects, Mocha and Photoshop were all used. The 2D elements were composited by VFX supervisor Garrett Honn.

Boom’s Paul Hamblin was re-recording mixer and Max Bygrave sound effect editor.
