Dolby Vision’s high dynamic range (HDR) capabilities set the standard for stunning visuals.

Available on the Dolby Learning Platform, the course covers HDR mastering, color grading, and a unique deep dive into light scripting.

Light Scripting: Mastering HDR’s Metadata

At the heart of Dolby Vision is its metadata, and Bollinger’s training explains how to use light scripting to optimize it. Light scripting is the process of fine-tuning luminance metadata to ensure consistent brightness and color accuracy across HDR and SDR (standard dynamic range) versions. Bollinger simplifies what often feels like digital alchemy, helping you align your HDR content perfectly with Dolby’s standards—no guesswork required.

Certifiable Confidence

For those eyeing Dolby Vision certification, the course serves as a practical prep guide. While the exam isn’t part of the package, Bollinger’s training ensures you’re ready to tackle the certification requirements confidently.

Stability Meets Simplicity

Designed with production professionals in mind, the course emphasizes reliable, scalable workflows. Dolby’s tools and Bollinger’s expertise work hand-in-hand to deliver stability—critical for avoiding surprises in demanding production environments. However, as always, thorough testing is recommended before using new workflows on live projects.
