Sony monitor chosen by VFX & post-production specialists

Learn more

Antaviana Films, Barcelona-based VFX and post-production specialist, has selected Sony’s BVM-HX3110 4K TRIMASTER master monitor to strengthen its high-end colour grading capabilities. The company chose the monitor for its exceptional colour accuracy, consistency, deep blacks and dynamic range, building on its long-standing trust in Sony technology.

The BVM-HX3110 gives Antaviana’s colourists confidence that technical precision is guaranteed, allowing them to focus fully on the creative intent of each project. Consistency between grading rooms is also crucial when collaborating with other studios and reassuring directors, DPs and clients. For Antaviana, the monitor has become an essential tool for making final creative decisions.
