DIT / Data Manager

Rob Mitchell

DIT Lab · Dailies Colourist · Data Manager

Bespoke DIT and Data Management for UK drama and feature, scaled to your production.

Rob is a Digital Imaging Technician and Dailies Colourist running a self-contained near-set mobile lab. He designs and runs the data and colour workflows for UK drama and feature, delivering dailies and DOP support across Alexa 35 and Sony Venice pipelines, with Starlink-enabled same-day delivery to editorial.

His focus is on protecting the DOP's vision from on-set capture through to post: a secure, streamlined data and colour pipeline with consistent dailies and a clean handover to the post house. The role sits between camera and post, and he treats it that way: a collaborator for the DOP on look development, and a clean, well-documented handover for editorial.
