Marco Schreiber
It all started with my deep passion for cameras and technology. Early on, I filmed my first sports videos, created photos for local businesses, and launched my own YouTube channel. Over time, my focus shifted entirely to the world of video.
Fast forward — more than ten years later, I work as a Colorist and certified DaVinci Resolve Trainer. On my YouTube channel, I’ve built a community of over 14,000 video enthusiasts. My greatest passion is sharing my knowledge and experience with others.
As a freelancer, I’ve had the privilege of working with companies like Red Bull, Adidas, Blackmagic Design, and many other renowned brands. During these years, I not only gained valuable experience behind the camera but also participated in international productions across Asia, America, and Australia. This allowed me to continuously expand and refine my production expertise and technical understanding.
Today, my focus is on color grading as a freelance colorist, as well as offering courses and training for businesses and individuals. What brings me the most joy is seeing how my work helps others’ creativity shine.

Do you have a specific area of interest or genre that fascinates you?
If so, what excites you about it? Definitely documentaries and extreme sports! I love bringing emotions, places, and experiences straight into viewers’ living rooms. For me, it hardly matters whether I’m behind the camera or enhancing the experience through color grading—using color to make the story even more impactful is something I truly enjoy.
Who and/or what inspires you the most?
Nature fascinates me every single day. It’s constantly changing yet always harmonious. Observing the colors throughout the seasons – from the fresh greens of spring to the golden glow of autumn – never ceases to inspire me.

Which Datacolor color management tools do you keep in your bag or workspace?
A SpyderPro in my color grading studio and a Spyder Checkr Video in my camera bag.
What do you like about them?
The portability is unbeatable: Thanks to the compact size of the Spyder Checkr Video, it hardly takes up any space in the bag and is always within reach. This means I always have a color chart on hand when needed—practical and reliable.

How does it help you realize your creative vision?
Color charts are an enormous help when it comes to achieving natural colors and establishing a solid starting point for color grading—especially in productions involving multiple camera brands. They allow me to precisely define my look later and perfectly match white point, contrast, and other parameters across different cameras during post-production.
Why are accurate colors important in your workflow?
As a colorist, my job is to deliver precise colors on screen. Without the highest level of accuracy, my work wouldn’t be possible.

What was the decisive factor for adopting color management?
What is your biggest challenge at work?
Balancing AI and manual work is one of the biggest challenges. With the increasing integration of AI into tools and workflows, you can’t afford to shut yourself off – you need to stay open and evaluate which features truly save time. For me, AI is an assistant that helps complete certain tasks faster and sometimes even better. However, with the rapid pace of development, it’s not always easy to stay up to date.
