“Colorists are a critical member of any VFX A-team,” says Light of Day Managing Partner Amy Taylor. “We are thrilled to have Natalie join Light of Day, her drive and artistic sensibility will be a great asset to us as we continue to push the creative and technical boundaries of commercial effects.”
Wollman has worked with well-known Directors of Photography Pawel Edelman and Slawomir Idziak on advertising campaigns for Pantene, Nokia, Toyota, VW, Chevrolet and Pepsi among others.
Earlier in her career, Wollman was a colorist for Bavarian Film Studios before freelancing for major production companies including Chimney Pot (Warsaw), Condor (Dubai), The Gate (Athens), Okra (Warsaw), The Gate (Lebanon) and Cinemedia (Berlin, Munich).
“Light of Day features a beautiful studio atmosphere and equally appealing is the talented team of people here. Both of these elements were appealing as I considered joining the company,” comments Natalie Wollman, colorist, Light of Day. “I’m also eager to participate in helping further build our colorist department and capabilities. It’s a great creative opportunity and I’m up for it.” Natalie concludes, “Having traveled and worked internationally the past decade, I have finally landed in New York, and living in the City and with Light of Day feels like a homecoming. Very happy to be here!”
