I’ve known Adrian Bull since my Todd-AO days; we’ve been friends since and I’ve long admired all that has been achieved at Cinelab. Their recent expansion to become a complete film and digital dailies facility, the continued resurgence of shooting on film and the high profile digital shows in production make this an inspiring opportunity.
