Nice Shoes has continued the rapid expansion of their Remote Colour Network with the launch of a partnership with Volt Studios in Minneapolis. The collaboration unites two rosters of complementary high-end post production talent, while saving both time and travel costs for Minneapolis advertising agencies.
The partnership comes following the NYC-based studio’s addition of Ed Koenig as Executive Producer for Colour and Finishing. Koenig, who has enjoyed a long relationship with Volt partners Steve Medin and Charlie Lach, was excited to connect them with the colourists at Nice Shoes.
"I'm thrilled to be partnered up with the team at Volt again,” said Koenig. “They have a great reputation in Minneapolis and I think we represent each other very well."
“We have long been admirers of Chris Ryan and the entire roster of talented artists at Nice Shoes and are excited by the opportunity to offer these talents to our Minneapolis clients,” said Charlie Lach, Executive Producer/Partner at Volt Studios. “They’ve been a great bunch to work with, we’ve had a lot of fun so far. Their East-Coast flavour is fabulous!"
The two studios have already commenced work on projects for agencies Martin Williams and Fallon.
Nice Shoes Remote Colour offers real-time remote collaboration, with a secure HD feed and a display calibrated by the studio’s engineers, so the remote monitor matches exactly with the colourist monitors. Since 2010, Nice Shoes has installed the proprietary technology at locations in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Los Angeles, Miami, and New Orleans; carefully selecting companies with comparable cultures and levels of customer service in order to replicate what clients have come to expect when working in New York.
