London, May 10 2011: Prime Focus Colourist Duncan Russell has graded the Woof Wan-Bau directed short film for German DIY chain, Hornbach. 'The Infinite House', which tells the story of a man who turns a shack into a magical house, was created by HEIMAT Berlin and produced by @radical.media.
"I'd worked with Duncan once before on a music video and he did a fantastic job on it so I was really happy to be coming back" said Woof Wan-Bau. "On this project, by the time we came to Prime Focus it had snowballed into a near ten minute film - but Duncan was so enthusiastic and the amount of care and attention to detail he gave it was incredible. I find Duncan is very open in the way he works, he actively encourages exploring and seeing what the possibilities in the colour are before making any definitive decisions. To me he's like a painter."
It was selected by TED as an ad worth spreading, and commended for its magical, atmospheric style which presents a single idea that has the potential to make the world a better place.
