Renowned Colourist Adriano Mestroni Joins Rumblefish

Rumblefish, one of Europe's leading providers of creative and technical media services, has announced that well-known colourist Adriano Mestroni has joined its creative team.
In a career spanning 20 years, Adriano has colour corrected more than 3,500 projects, often in collaboration with the world's most celebrated DPs and directors, including Zack Snyder, Spike Lee, Tarsem Singh and Tony Kaye.
Mestroni said: "In 2009, I have decided finally to abandon the old concept of colour grading and become a part of the non-linear world. In Rumblefish, I have found a highly sophisticated post-production company ready to meet the needs of the international marketplace.
"I look forward to sharing with Rumblefish and its estimable clients my own creative abilities, skills and knowledge."
In 1989, Mestroni joined Italy's first fully digital post-production company, Digital Video, earning praise throughout the country for his creative and innovative use of new technology on commercials and music videos. After that, he was a member of Interactive Group where he coached a team of colourists who eventually became the Contrast Group, known throughout Europe for its cutting-edge technology and style.
Adriano was born near Milan and studied photography and cinematography. Early in his career, he worked for TRM2 as a cameraman then at RETE4 and Canale5 as a colourist of films.
Massimo Germoglio, Rumblefish's Managing Director, said: "Adriano's arrival at Rumblefish is the culmination of our philosophy, which is to blend innovation, talent and skill with a passion for work. With his international reputation and long experience, Adriano is unique among colourists in Italy. By joining our team, he will enable us to take the next logical step toward our business and creative objectives."
