Directed by Karyn Kusama (Girlfight), The Invitation centers on a dinner party of old friends that takes a turn for the macabre.
Modern VideoFilm colorist Gregg Garvin (There Will Be Blood, Don Jon) handled final color grading working in P3 color space. Working under the direction of Kusama, cinematographer Bobby Shore (Man Seeking Woman, A Dark Truth) and Kusama’s color timer Harris Charalambous (The ABCs of Death), Garvin collaboratively shaped the slightly heightened grade that brought out golden tones and emphasized the confining space of the film’s principal interior.
“The last stages of post are the final stops you make on the way to finally showing your film to the world,” said Kusama. “No matter how big or small your film, or your audience, it’s a genuine comfort to have a post staff that’s knowledgeable and conscientious, and who care about the films they work on.”
“Modern has always been very supportive of independent film,” said DI producer Jeannette Zepeda. “We enjoy working with inspired filmmakers like Karyn Kusama and want to help their films reach their audience.”
