ABOUT
Hey there! I’m CJ Dobson, I’m a senior colourist working in all areas of film from branded content to premium TV and feature length productions. I’ve had 15 yrs of experience colouring at some of the industry’s leading post production facilities including Digital Pictures, iloura, Method Studios and more.
I’ve also started my own studio MOODLAB, in Melbourne Australia.
Available for in person or remote bookings.

HIGHLIGHTS & Updates
What an honour to get to work on the prequel to one of the greatest horror classics! Coming to Paramount Plus in September.
I spent many hours in a dark room with some spectacularly talented Kates for this epic 8-part series for Amazon prime, DEADLOCH. It can be described as a hilarious feminist noir crime thriller. What a combo! I might be biased but also you should definitely watch it.
Had a blast grading this one with director Jeffrey Walker and DOP Don McAlpine ACS ASC.
Moodlab has two kick-ass screening and finishing rooms designed specifically to meet the needs of Melbourne’s best colourists, flame artists and editors. It’s not only the perfect environment for critical evaluation, but a beautiful contemporary space for important presentations.
I’m excited for the opportunity to bring colour grading into the main stream. Usually when I’ve spoken at events, it’s been within the film industry. I’m also very honoured to be on a panel with some very clever people and I can’t wait to hear what they have to say.
I love weird things and I especially love when I get to work on them! Can’t wait for audiences to experience ‘Nude Tuesday’ in all it’s quirky glory.
‘Love Me’ to premiere on binge on Boxing Day. It was wonderful to collaborate on the look with Cinematographer Earle Dresner ACS. One of our goals was to make Melbourne beautiful and according to reviewers, we even managed to make the Yarra look good. Success!
Congratulations to ‘The Newsreader’ team for taking out the award for best drama.
‘High Ground’, ‘The Newsreader’, ‘Frayed Season 2’ are all up for AACTA awards. Particularly excited for the cinematography noms for ‘High Ground’ and ‘The Newsreader’.
