Job description

About us

NxtWave is a fast-growing Ed-Tech startup revolutionizing the 21st-century job market by transforming into highly skilled tech professionals. We're backed by leading investors and have received accolades for our excellence in education.

Job Role : Colorist

About the Role

We are seeking a talented and detail-obsessed Colorist to join our growing video production team. As our in-house Colorist, you will be instrumental in defining the visual tone and color language across a diverse array of content—from premium educational videos and masterclasses to brand films and product explainers.

You’ll bring a deep understanding of color science, S-Log / RAW workflows, and visual storytelling to enhance mood, tone, and brand consistency. Your role is pivotal in ensuring every frame we release meets the highest cinematic standards, elevating the learner's experience and reinforcing the NxtWave brand’s visual excellence.

Key Responsibilities

Color Grading & Look Development

  • Perform color correction and color grading on footage shot in S-Log / RAW profiles, delivering high-quality, visually consistent results across a range of formats.
  • Develop and maintain a cohesive color palette that aligns with each project’s narrative, mood, and branding.
  • Create custom LUTs and grading templates for consistent use across recurring content formats.
  • Ensure accurate skin tones, balanced highlights and shadows, and depth that enhances storytelling.

Technical Workflow & Delivery

  • Manage DaVinci Resolve workflows (or equivalent professional grading suites), from conforming and color grading to rendering and final delivery.
  • Collaborate closely with cinematographers and editors to ensure footage is captured and delivered to maximize grading flexibility.
  • Implement color pipelines that integrate seamlessly with post-production workflows, ensuring efficient turnaround times without compromising on quality.
  • Maintain color accuracy through color-managed workflows, ensuring deliverables are optimized for web, broadcast, and LMS platforms.

    • Quality Control & Consistency

  • Conduct QC checks on final outputs, ensuring there are no color discrepancies, banding, or compression issues.
  • Maintain visual consistency across multi-camera setups, different locations, and varying lighting environments.
  • Ensure color fidelity between raw footage, graded outputs, and any integrated motion graphics or VFX elements.

    • Collaboration & Creative Input

  • Work closely with directors, cinematographers, and post-production teams to interpret creative briefs and bring the director’s vision to life through color.
  • Provide on-set advice during pre-production or principal photography, including recommendations on lighting and camera settings to facilitate post-production grading.
  • Stay updated on color grading trends, cinema aesthetics, and technical advancements in the field, continuously pushing the visual boundaries of our content.

    • What We’re Looking For

  • Experience : Minimum 2-3 years as a Colorist in a professional environment (films, commercials, branded content, masterclasses, etc.).
  • Software Proficiency :
  • Expertise in DaVinci Resolve Studio (primary), with familiarity in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, or other NLEs an added advantage.
  • Proficiency in color-managed workflows, ACES, and HDR grading is a plus.
  • Technical Knowledge :
  • Deep understanding of color theory, color spaces, LUTs, scopes (waveform, vector, parade), and color calibration.
  • Experience working with footage from Sony FX series, Canon Cinema, Blackmagic, and RED cameras.
  • Attention to Detail : Obsessive about consistency, color balance, and technical accuracy, with a sharp eye for subtle nuances in hue, saturation, and luminance.
  • Creative Sensibility : Strong sense of visual storytelling, with the ability to enhance mood and emotion through color while staying true to the brand identity.
  • Communication & Collaboration : Excellent communication skills to articulate creative decisions and collaborate effectively with directors, DOPs, and editors.

    • Nice to Have

  • Experience with HDR workflows and Dolby Vision mastering.
  • Familiarity with on-set color monitoring and live grading tools.
  • Understanding of VFX pipelines and compositing, ensuring clean color passes for effects-heavy projects.

    • Why Join Us?

    At NxtWave, we craft visually stunning and impactful educational content that changes lives. As our Colorist, you will have the opportunity to shape the visual language of our content portfolio—enhancing storytelling and delivering cinematic experiences that inspire and engage.

    You’ll collaborate with an elite team of cinematographers, editors, and motion designers, contributing to projects that push the boundaries of educational content and brand storytelling.
