A Continuing Collaboration

After completing the fourth season in Fall 2010, Mad Men was recently picked up for a fifth season airing in 2012. This critically acclaimed and Emmy Award winning show continues to make LaserPacific its home and collaborator in taking the look of the show to a whole different level.

LaserPacific's DI team works on Hop

Blending live action with animation, Hop tells the story of the teenage son of the Easter Bunny (voiced by Russell Brand), who wants to give up the family business and become a drummer. Hit by a car driven by out of work slacker Fred (James Marsden), he feigns injury and manipulates Fred into letting him move in. Director Tim Hill and cinematographer Peter Lyons Collister again chose to work with LaserPacific's senior colorist Dave Cole, who had previously worked with them on Alvin and the Chipmunks.

The Good Wife stars Emmy award winner Julianna Margulies as Alicia Florrick, a defense attorney who graduated top of her class from Georgetown University. She gives up her career to bring up her children and support her politician husband, played by Chris Noth. When he becomes involved in a very public sex and corruption scandal, culminating in him being sent to jail, Alicia goes back to work at a prestigious Chicago law firm. She joins her law school classmate Will Gardner (Josh Charles), who is now a partner at the firm. As a junior associate, she has to compete with the firm's new recruits, who are all in their twenties, at the same time as she continues to raise her two teenage children. The Good Wife is a production of CBS Television Studios and Scott Free Productions. Executive Producers include Tony and Ridley Scott.

Red State brings Kevin Smith to LaserPacific for the fourth time.

Kevin Smith's latest movie, Red State, tells the story of a group of teenagers in middle America who respond to an online ad looking for thrills but encounter fundamentalists with a sinister agenda. Kevin Smith again teamed up with cinematographer David Klein and returned to LaserPacific to work with Senior Colorist Dave Cole again. The collaboration between director Kevin Smith and David Klein stretches back sixteen years to Smith's directorial debut Clerks in 1994. Since then, David Klein has shot over twenty movies, including five more with Kevin Smith: Chasing Amy, Mallrats, Clerks 2, Zack and Miri Make a Porno and Cop Out.

Tron: Legacy Showcases LaserPacific's 3D DI Capabilities

In order to surpass the ground-breaking visuals of the original movie, Disney's Tron: Legacy would need a spectacular look for its digital intermediate. The size of LaserPacific's grading theaters makes them ideally suited to grading stereoscopic projects. When added to the skill and experience of senior colorist Dave Cole and the expertise of the engineering team, this made LaserPacific the natural choice for director Joseph Kosinski and cinematographer Claudio Miranda, ASC.
