"A relationship of trust has been established thanks to their great professionalism and concern to understand the needs. The reactivity and flexibility of Charbon made of them a long-term partner. "

Aurélien Bodinaux, Néon Rouge Productions

« Committed, creative and precise work »

Sven Augustijnen, film maker

"They work rigorously and are technically very competent, which is what you expect at this stage in the film process, and on top of that they have created in their studio a warm and creative atmosphere."

Banu Akseki, film-maker

"I appreciated Charbons work; a subtle approach, putting their energy into making the film dramatically stronger, through collaboration and without technical smokescreening."

Raphaël Dethier, director

"A competent, serious, available and very comptetive team for the complete post-production workflow of my film ‘Origines’."

Eric Cayron, director

"I was very impressed by your rigour, your speed of execution, your efficiency, but also by your ability to listen and your generous imagination."

Anouchka Blavier-Dewarichet, Lux Fugit Film

"Serious work completed within the deadlines, intelligent and precise advice, friendly and available: all qualities that allowed me to complete the post-production of my project without unnecessary stress."

Sébastien Cools, director

"They know how to put new technologies at the service of the project's artistic needs with a lot of professionalism."

Natalia Duque, director

"At Charbon Studio, footage, down to its most minute pixel is worked on with an extreme rigour. Finalising your film in these conditions is just perfect !"

Anne Leclerq, director

"Charbon offers precision, they are good listeners, they make real suggestions, creating a dialogue, all this underpinned with professional equipment and a very high quality projection."

Christophe Istace, director

"This mix of professionalism and artistic sensibility brought an esthetic quality to my film beyond my greatest hopes."

Julien Doigny, director

"We took the time to look for the right solutions, burning no bridges (...) The colour grading contributed to reinforcing the original options taken and harmoniously melted in to the film's workflow."

Samuel Tilman, director

"I enjoyed working with a serious qualified partner on whom I could count during the whole post-production of my film."

Manuel Dacosse, D.O.P

"I was pleasantly surprised by how swiftly the colour grader understood from the start the esthetic intentions we had for the film and his capacity to invest himself and explore our visual desires."

Fanny Friadt, D.O.P

"A warm welcome combined with rigorous colourgrading and image correction. (...) The work was accurate, confident and tasteful."

André Dartevelle, director

"In record time, Charbon delivered a colour grading of quality!"

Loren Claessens, director

"Their work was excellent. They helped me in every way possible and I am very pleased with the result."

Maris De Smedt, director

"Michäel works quick and sharp without compromising time and quality. It was very reassuring to know that he truly cared about the project and tried to give his best personal contribution to it."

Pablo Castilla, film-maker

"Working with Charbon is as a being within family and advance as far as possible"

Christophe Hermans, film-maker
