Company 3 (CO3), a subsidiary of Deluxe Entertainment Services Group Inc., has announced the integration of Deluxe 142’s London-based Digital Intermediate (DI) facility into its network of locations.
The addition extends the reach of Company 3’s operations into Europe, complementing its existing New York, Atlanta and Santa Monica locations. Company 3 in London will be overseen by Stefan Sonnenfeld, Company 3 president/co-founder and president of Deluxe® Creative Services, with day-to-day operations to be led by Patrick Malone, director of digital film services.
“Having a new location based out of London is especially exciting for CO3….The addition of these DI suites will open the door for UK-based feature clients who want to finish at Company 3,” said Sonnenfeld. “It also further expands opportunities for the growing number of features that need to spread postproduction services across both US and UK locations.”
The London location has two DI theaters featuring DaVinci Resolve R350 digital grading systems and 2K Barco projectors that mirror those installed at Company 3’s U.S. locations. This enables the global team to work together to offer a true end-to-end solution from dailies through to deliverables. The London facility is also equipped to work in partnership with Company 3’s sister facility, EFILM.
Sonnenfeld added, “We’ve been working closely with the team in the UK for years and they are world class, having already worked on several high-profile blockbusters including One Day, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. The collaboration of talent, knowledge and seamless workflows across Deluxe’s Creative Services group is key to providing the best experience for our clients where ever they are located.”
Company 3’s London DI service will remain an integral part of the suite of services offered by Deluxe 142 which will continue to offer a complete end to end post production solution to their client base spanning the broadcast and feature film market.
Disney Pledges $15 million In L.A. Fire Aid As More Celebs Learn They’ve Lost Their Homes
The Pacific Palisades wildfires torched the home of "This Is Us" star Milo Ventimiglia, perhaps most poignantly destroying the father-to-be's newly installed crib.
CBS cameras caught the actor walking through his charred house for the first time, standing in what was once his kitchen and looking at a neighborhood in ruin. "Your heart just breaks."
He and his pregnant wife, Jarah Mariano, evacuated Tuesday with their dog and they watched on security cameras as the flames ripped through the house, destroying everything, including a new crib.
"There's a kind of shock moment where you're going, 'Oh, this is real. This is happening.' What good is it to continue watching?' And then at a certain point we just turned it off, like 'What good is it to continue watching?'"
Firefighters sought to make gains Friday during a respite in the heavy winds that fanned the flames as numerous groups pledged aid to help victims and rebuild, including a $15 million donation pledge from the Walt Disney Co.
More stars learn their homes are gone
While seeing the remains of his home, Ventimiglia was struck by a connection to his "This Is Us" character, Jack Pearson, who died after inhaling smoke in a house fire. "It's not lost on me life imitating art."
Mandy Moore, who played Ventimiglia's wife on "This Is Us," nearly lost her home in the Eaton fire, which scorched large areas of the Altadena neighborhood. She said Thursday that part of her house is standing but is unlivable, and her husband lost his music studio and all his instruments.
