A brief overview of what Light Illusion is today, how it came to be, and the experience that backs the company.
Light Illusion.
Steve, who has more years experience within the digital imaging business than he cares to remember, started his consulting services some year back with the original name Digital Praxis. This in turn led to Light Illusion, and more recently Light Illusion India, under the management of Sundeep Reddy, another well known industry individual.
Associated with the operation are top-notch operators and companies from around the globe who have extensive experience of Editorial, Digital Intermediate and VFX operations, as well as Digital and traditional Film Cinematography.
Light Illusion operation came into being as a direct result of market needs and requirements as it became obvious there was precious little digital film experience, specifically within the new and growing world of Digital Intermediate, and after a number of requests to assist in the start-up of new DI operations Light Illusion was born.
