Smedira, Melanie

Melanie Smedira is the treasurer of the SMPTE student chapter at the Rochester Institute of Technology and a color assistant at Magic Spell Studios. Her focus is on learning more about how to optimize a color managed post production workflow for student films. She has had the opportunity to help many different students on their films in many different parts of the post production pipeline: from being a DIT on set to color grading films in post. She has also had the privilege to do research into virtual production and worked to find a color managed workflow for students wanting to incorporate virtual production into their films. She is excited to learn more in her field and is thrilled to be given the opportunity to talk at NAB!
