Alexis Van Hurkman joins Bobola Oniwura on this episode of the podcast.

Alexis is a colorist, filmmaker, educator, and the author of the Color Correction Handbook — the book that has been on the shelf of virtually every working colorist for over a decade. For years as a freelance writer, he wrote the official user manuals for DaVinci Resolve, trained colorists across the globe, conducted seminar for the Graduate Film Division at NYC's Columbia University, and presented at events like BRTV and the Amsterdam Supermeet.

Today he is the Principal Product Manager of Color at Adobe, and the last three years of his life have been devoted to building something the industry has been waiting for longer than most of us want to admit: Color Mode in Premiere Pro.
In this conversation we talk about what it took to build it, what it means for our craft, and what happens to color grading when the walls come down.

Brad Moody joins Bobola Oniwura on this episode of the podcast.

Brad is an internationally recognized digital media educator, DaVinci Resolve Certified Trainer, and Apple Distinguished Educator. He currently serves as Chair and Professor of Digital and Interactive Media Production at Daytona State College in Florida, United States. And for more than two decades, he has helped design programs, train instructors, and build learning environments that connect creative education directly to professional practice. He is also a long-standing international juror for major broadcast and creative awards, including PROMAX, spanning Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and beyond.

In this conversation with Brad, we go beyond software into judgment, taste, and what truly defines professional work.

Noam Kroll joins Bobola Oniwura on this episode of the podcast.

Noam is an LA-based filmmaker, colorist, and creative force whose work spans feature films, music videos, commercial campaigns, and a thriving online platform for independent creators. With a background that bridges cinematography, directing, and post-production, he has built a reputation for emotionally-driven color grading and hands-on, story-first filmmaking.

In this episode, Noam Kroll joins us to share his journey from self-taught filmmaker to respected colorist, director, and founder of Creative Rebellion. We explore how his background in psychology shapes his approach to emotionally-driven color grading, his philosophy on LUTs as storytelling tools, and how he achieves cinematic quality on micro-budget productions. Noam also opens up about the future of color in an AI-driven world, the mindset behind solo feature filmmaking, and what aspiring colorists should focus on in their first year. It's a deep, inspiring conversation that bridges art, technology, and creative independence.
