How it works

Less hassle for your producer

Every project gets its own private client portal. Your team uploads the footage, reviews the grade on the exact frame and receives the quote, invoice and final masters — all behind one link. No WeTransfer chains, no timecodes lost in email.

Your project portal: one overview from upload to delivery.
  • One link, no accountWorks in any browser, on a laptop or a phone.
  • Notes on the exact frameComments arrive as markers in my DaVinci Resolve timeline.
  • Versions side by sideCompare the new grade with the previous one before you approve.
  • Private by designFootage stays on my own studio server in the Netherlands.
  1. Step 1

    Upload

    Choose SDR (100 nits), HDR (1000 nits) or film restoration. With your quote you receive the portal link: drag in whole folders, add reference stills, a briefing and your delivery specs. If the connection drops, the upload carries on by itself.

  2. Step 2

    Review & feedback

    Watch the grade in your browser with frame-accurate timecode. Pause, comment or draw on the image, reply and compare versions. I translate your notes directly into the grade. Live remote attendance is possible too.

  3. Step 3

    Final masters

    Tell me where the film will be shown and in which format you need it. By default you get a Rec.709 HD master as ProRes 422 HQ; HDR10, Dolby Vision and DCP are available too. After approval and payment I deliver the final masters.

About

About Wilfred IceField

I’m Wilfred, a freelance colorist and color grader for film, commercials and branded content, working from Studio IceField in Aerdenhout, the Netherlands — remotely or on-site. DaVinci Resolve is my core tool.

I work with directors, DOPs, producers and agencies to make images consistent, cinematic and brand-ready. From subtle, natural grades to bold, stylized looks: color should elevate the story — never distract from it.

Building the right look together

Color grading is about emotion, rhythm and focus. I translate creative intent into an image that is technically accurate and emotionally resonant. My goal is always the same: clarity, consistency and feeling.

Frequently asked questions

About remote color grading, the client portal and delivery.

What does Studio IceField do?

Studio IceField is the color grading studio of freelance colorist Wilfred IceField in Aerdenhout, the Netherlands. I do color grading and color correction in DaVinci Resolve for film, commercials and branded content, in SDR, HDR and Dolby Vision, plus film restoration. I work remotely or on-site.

How does remote color grading with Studio IceField work?

In three steps. 1. Upload: you receive a private portal link with your quote and upload your footage, timeline, reference stills and delivery specs. 2. Review: you watch the grade in your browser and leave frame-accurate comments and drawings. 3. Final masters: after approval the invoice appears in the portal, and after payment I deliver the masters in the agreed formats.

What is the Studio IceField client portal?

A private web portal per project where your team uploads footage, adds references and delivery specs, reviews the grade on the exact frame, compares versions side by side and approves the quote and invoice. It replaces separate tools for file transfer, review and paperwork.

Do I need an account or software to use the portal?

No. You open the project link with its access code in any modern browser, on a laptop or a phone. The portal is available in English and Dutch, in a light or dark theme.

Where is my footage stored?

On my own studio server in the Netherlands, not on a third-party review platform. Every project has its own private link and access code.

How do I give feedback on the grade?

Pause the video, type your comment or draw on the frame, and post it. Every comment carries its timecode and arrives as a marker in my DaVinci Resolve timeline. You can reply to comments and compare a new version with the previous one.

Which delivery formats do you offer?

By default a Rec.709 master in HD as ProRes 422 HQ, which suits YouTube, Vimeo and most online screenings. HDR10, Dolby Vision, UHD and 4K, DCP for cinema, and other codecs such as ProRes 4444, DNxHR or H.264 are available on request.

Which editing software can I deliver from?

You can upload media with an XML, FCPXML, AAF or EDL timeline from DaVinci Resolve, Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro, or a Resolve project file.

How do I get a quote?

Send a short brief through the contact form, by email to wilfred@icefield.nl or via WhatsApp. Your quote arrives with your own portal link, and you can approve it online with one click.
