The Professionals Represented by SAFAITS

Digital Imaging Technicians (DITs)

DITs work on set to make sure that everything captured on camera is stored securely and prepared for editing. They manage digital files, adjust camera settings, and often apply preliminary colour grading to ensure that footage matches the intended look from start to finish.

Digital Intermediate Colourists

DI Colourists are the artists responsible for ensuring that each shot in a film or show looks visually perfect. They balance colours, adjust tones, and create moods that bring each scene to life, working closely with directors to ensure the visuals match the story’s intent.

Online Editors

These editors prepare the final version of a project. They integrate all parts of the edited film or show, making final adjustments and ensuring everything is polished, synchronised, and ready for delivery to audiences.

VFX (Visual Effects) Artists

VFX Artists add the “wow” factor to a film or show. They create digital effects—anything from special effects like explosions to fantastical landscapes—that aren’t possible to capture on camera, helping to tell stories in visually compelling ways.

Compositors

Compositors bring together different visual elements to create seamless scenes. They work with green screens, digital effects, and multiple layers of footage to ensure everything blends together naturally in the final product.

QC (Quality Control) & Delivery Editors

These editors review each final project to ensure there are no visual or technical issues. They check for elements like smooth transitions, correct audio levels, and image clarity to guarantee that viewers receive the best possible experience. Additionally, they handle the final delivery of content to broadcasters and streaming platforms, ensuring that all technical specifications are met for seamless distribution across various media channels.
