Young colorist brings experience with Baselight grading system and a credit list that includes Bridgestone, Southwest Airlines, and McDonald's.
In the first step in a new effort to grow and expand services, Filmworkers, Nashville, has added Jimmy Cadenas as Senior Colorist. Cadenas spent the past seven years at Filmworkers‘ facilities in Chicago and Dallas where he learned his craft from some of the industry’s top colorists, and worked on projects ranging from national television commercials to music videos and feature films.
Cadenas has extensive experience with the Baselight color grading system used at Filmworkers‘ Chicago, Dallas and Nashville facilities, and in grading media from the latest digital camera systems. He recently served as colorist for The Revenge of the Great Camera Shootout 2012, a documentary and research project that compared cameras made by Arri, Sony, Canon, Red, Panasonic and Apple. His recent credits also include work for Bridgestone, Southwest Airlines, and Travelocity, as well as the R. Kelly video "Share My Love."
“Jimmy is an exceptionally talented young colorist. He is an expert in the latest digital formats and brings new energy to the Nashville market,” said Filmworkers President Reid Brody. “We’ve been very impressed with how quickly he has developed into a top colorist. He has had great chemistry with agency teams in Chicago and Dallas, and we can’t wait to introduce him to our Nashville clients.”
A graduate of Columbia College, Cadenas began his career as an assistant colorist at Filmworkers‘ Chicago facility in 2005. He worked on commercials for such brands as McDonald’s and Sears. In 2008, he was promoted to colorist and relocated to Dallas.
Cadenas joins a creative team at Filmworkers Nashville that also includes Adam Little, (editor) and Tim Moore, (editor and visual effects artist).
Cadenas looks forward to working with advertising agencies, production companies, and others in Nashville and throughout the region. “I am excited to join the team of artists at Filmworkers Nashville,” he said. “This market is young and hip and offers great opportunities for artists seeking to do exciting, creative work.”

“Ǝvolution” Comes Full Circle At The Chelsea Film Festival
The Chelsea Film Festival, running from October 16th through October 20th, 2024, at Regal Cinemas here in Union Square, is set to host the East Coast premiere of Ǝvolution, a thought-provoking experimental micro-short film that proves big ideas can come in small packages and in perfect circles.
In just 1 minute 16 seconds, this cinematic gem by Award-Winning Director Romina Schwedler, with original music by Argentine Composer Ignacio Montoya Carlotto, explores a cycle as old as time: life leads to progress, progress leads to destruction, and destruction, well, leads back to life. But is this vicious circle unbreakable? Ǝvolution suggests the answer is yes, unless we decide to open our eyes.
Inspired by the overwhelming number of recent events that threaten human existence, Ǝvolution, possibly the shortest film in this 12th edition of the festival, plays out entirely through the symbolism of circles, cleverly illustrating —in the blink of an eye— the repeating patterns of history, and confronting viewers with the uncomfortable truth that our so-called “progress” may, in fact, be guiding us to our own ruin.Premiering at the Regal 14 Union Square, New York City, on October 18, 2024, at 11 a.m., Romina Schwedler's micro-short, featuring Leah Young with cinematography by Alan J. Carmona, will be sure to spark conversations longer than the film itself! Forcing viewers to reconsider the true meaning of evolution, not just as a biological process, but as a reflection of our collective journey as humans.
With a string of festival appearances across the globe, including CineGlobe at CERN (Switzerland/France), Oscar®... Read More
