ABOUT THE PRACTICE
The Palette is a boutique colour grading studio run by Khalif Sultan. Every project — commercial or narrative, agency or independent — gets the same thing: a careful, considered grade built around your creative intent and delivery spec. Not a preset. Not a look applied across the board.
Working remotely from Brighton in a DWG pipeline, with a calibrated Prism+ monitor and a process that covers conform through to final delivery.
