LOS ANGELES - Picture Shop (www.pictureshop.com) has added senior colorist Paul Allia to its team in Toronto. He transitions from Picture Shop’s Los Angeles-based facilities, bringing more than two decades of experience in color finishing for high-profile episodics and feature films.
Allia’s portfolio includes work on the Emmy Award-winning series The Pitt (HBO Max), The Cleaning Lady (Fox), and Rabbit Hole and Happy Face (Paramount+). He will be based out of Picture Shop’s new facility at 30 Adelaide Street East in downtown Toronto, and remains available for international collaborations.
The modern, airy, centrally-located site brings together picture and sound services, and features new grading rooms, mix stages, an ADR studio and edit suites, all designed to support high-end post production.
“Paul is an extraordinary talent whose work reflects the highest level of creative and technical artistry,” notes Bill Romeo, CEO and president of Picture Shop. “We’re thrilled to welcome him to our Toronto team, where his experience and collaborative spirit will be a tremendous asset to clients across Canada and beyond.”
“I’m excited to join the Picture Shop team in Toronto and be a part of the vibrant creative community there,” adds Allia, who is an associate member of the American Society of Cinematographers. “I look forward to this new chapter while continuing to collaborate with storytellers around the world.”
