Depends rather what your budget is - 'low budget' is anywhere under £3M according to PACT!

I'd suggest Romania if you're strapped, though - I can probably give you a contact if you have reasonable money, but it won't be freebies :)

It's clear that members here are coming from entirely differing planets. Paddy's notes above demonstrate just how difficult it can often be to respond to contextually ambiguous questions put here. The 'how long is a piece of string?' metaphor comes to mind.

For some of us here the very notion of grading a feature immediately draws to mind major studio practices and PACT's £3M reality reveals their bubble.

In our modest 32 year old production company we sometimes talk about grading and colouring too, but usually. if not always, in terms of using the mainly Adobe tools we have in house. It's only my estimation but I think we get some pretty good results. We don't offer this as a service to other producers but it does suggest that clarifying exactly what's wanted within a clear context is essential.
