A Color Assist works side by side with a Colorist and Color Producer. Developing a close working relationship with the Colorist and Producer is vital and only possible if the Color Assist has an intrinsic understanding of the Senior Colorist's technical and creative methods. 

Although an Assist reports to the Senior Colorist, they must also have the ability to work and communicate closely with the Color Producers, clients and VFX teams. 

The Colorists and Assist must establish a highly developed sense of color imagery coupled
