About Us


ColorScene started in 2010 when David Catt, having left his position at DaVinci, decided to partner with fellow Colorist Ron Anderson as a free-lance colorist. When DaVinci was sold to Blackmagic Design, David was asked by BMD to handle DaVinci Resolve customer sales and support on the East Coast of the USA. ColorScene now undertakes DaVinci Resolve, Fairlight and Fusion as well as Diamont Film Restoration software sales in the whole of the USA, Canada, & Latin America.

Our focus is providing the best technology for our Post-Production and Broadcast clients. With Data-aware and metadata based software solutions we can create the best and most efficient content creation environments and infrastructure to satisfy the requirements of our customers.

Meet the Team


David Catt

Owner, Colorist, Trainer

David Catt started life in the film and television industry as a telecine engineer at Rank Cintel in the UK where he also ran the Cintel training department for a while before going to SVC Television. SVC, based in Soho was a leading edge London post production facility and David joined as their chief (and at the time only) engineer. His knowledge and understanding of the process led to taking over as full time colorist. He built a second telecine suite and then a third which used the very first Da Vinci color corrector in Europe. Later, he built the first Tape to Tape room in Europe also using a Da Vinci system.

Perhaps by necessity David became very close to many of the staff at Da Vinci and in 1994, they offered him the position of Product Manager. He began working with the Da Vinci engineers to develop products from a colorists perspective, and created the product specifications for the Da Vinci 2K and Resolve.

In 2007, David moved over to Film Systems to become their Product Manager with the intention of building a new film scanner. However, the writing was on the wall even then that main stream film was on the decline. Not long after Blackmagic design bought Da Vinci and needed an Eastern USA reseller for the revitalized Resolve product line. Film Systems was selected and became very successful in building, selling and training on Linux and Mac Resolve color correctors, Revival Restoration and UltraScope products.

The color correction industry was significantly changing to process all the new digital formats with less need for film scanning, so to get back to his colorist roots, David with help from good friend and fellow Colorist Ron Anderson started his own color correction company, ColorScene. He uses a Resolve color correction system installed in a purpose-built grading suite. His years of experience in product management and concept design for color correction products helped him create highly efficient color correction processes and workflows to match the requirements of a nearly all digital world.

David color grades on a regular basis and is also a certified Blackmagic Resolve trainer and a member of the ICA where he regularly teaches people the art of color.
