Tashi Trieu

Digital intermediate color grading is a wonderful fusion of cinematography and visual effects. I love working with filmmakers and artists to bring their visions to life—to help them realize the potential of the fantastic images they have crafted and captured. I approach each shot with curiosity and respect for the intent behind it. I sit at the intersection of art and state-of-the-art.

Tashi Trieu is a visual finishing artist and colorist with over fifteen years of post-production experience across feature films, episodic television, commercials, and short-form content.

With a deep background in compositing, digital photography, and film photography, Tashi brings a nuanced understanding of image-making to every grade. He holds extensive technical knowledge in color science, image processing, and the end-to-end digital post-production workflow.

Tashi grades at MOSAIC, the artist-driven finishing studio he co-founded in Burbank.

Tashi is a co-author of Modern Post: Workflows and Techniques for Digital Filmmakers and contributed the Digital Intermediates chapter to the third edition of the VES Handbook — the industry's definitive reference on visual effects. He has contributed to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences' ACES color standards project and consults for color science applications and major software vendors.

As an educator, he has taught digital intermediate color grading at Chapman University's Dodge College of Film & Media Arts and Taipei National University of the Arts, and provided post-production consulting to major studios and facilities in Taiwan.
