The Colorist Society International (CSI) strives to advance the craft, education, and awareness of the art and science of color grading and color correction. The Colorist Society is the first professional society devoted exclusively to furthering and honoring the professional achievements of the colorist community. It is not a labor union or a guild; it is an educational and cultural resource. Membership is open to professional colorists, editor/colorists, DITs, telecine operators, color timers, finishers, restoration artists, and color scientists.
