Hey you, my name is Filippo Cinotti

I’m a DP and a Colorist who operates  worldwide on the commercials and film industry.

I started my career as a freelance Filmmaker back in 2008, and before that I worked as a Photographer and Graphic Designer.

After few years in the Industry, I mainly worked as a Freeflysystem MOVI Operator for a while, deciding then in 2016 to translate everything I was doing mainly into the image craft in its entirety.

With Plasma, I decided to take my knowledge and craft professional Masterclasses and products for the Filmmaking community.

A Blackmagic Design Certified Trainer...
I am part of the Blackmagic Design Trainers list since August 2020. This achievement is necessary to prove our audience a true eligibility on what we deliver.

...forming Professionals
Knowledge-Sharing is the Core of Plasma Republic, and we based our content creation on the same baseline.

I also made 2 Color Grading Masterclasses that gained 1000+ students. 
Here are some of my favorite Feedbacks!

Even though, I've been freelancing for 12 years, I knew next to nothing about what I was doing. I was just doing it.

Just look at my ‘Lord of the Rings’ Inspired short from 2009…
It was just me, a camera, few friends, and dozens of movies. I haven't a roadmap, methods, or way of working...

I felt frustrated, but in love and that's where my transformation started

That was the moment were I officially decided to go all in into FIlmmaking

I pushed myself 100% into sets, masterclasses, courses, live events, everything that was helpful in any possible way.

I was consuming everything I could, from literally thousands of creators, and at the same time, give to the practical side a big part: long days and nights on many different sets proved what I was learning day after day about Filmmaking and Cinematography in general.

Than, in 2015 I decided to put myself full-time into Cinematography, and then Color Grading.

In that moment, I started working on many sets, different projects, and things literally get serious

I also released my first 2 Masterclasses during those years!

the ones with 1000+ Students, that I decided to close in order to make them exclusive...
the ones that are still today requested day by day by tons of you via Instagram...

LITERALLY, TONS OF YOU, EVERY SINGLE DAY...

...and after tons or request....
I came up with the idea:
Making a unique, giant course, in order to help (literally) every Filmmaker, Freelance Colorist, Content Creator (anyone) who would love to have a complete roadmap of the Professional Colorist’s Journey

And for the first time ever, I’m revealing everything I’ve learned about how to grow into a successful professional

The Professional roadmap for your future

Follow a methodical roadmap
Become an acknowledged professional
Attract the clients you deserve

By the end, you'll be able

Reach your goals

By understanding and defining your situation, you’ll be able to reach your goals by following a methodical path inside the Masterclass.

Take your place in the World

By understanding who you are and who you’re gonna be, we’ll be defining what is you proper roadmap to a successful life.

Master an art

Not just about how to use the tools, but how to Master them! After the Masterclass, Davinci Resolve and all the tools around it will be your homeground.

Aware of the Technical Side

On this job you can’t skip the ‘geek’ side. Without headaches, you’ll learn the ‘must knows‘ and the insides from the software.

Have a proper Methodical Mindset

Being a nerd won’t pay off if you can’t set a methodical mindset; the things that differs you from a technician are the things that make the difference.

Realize how it feels EASY!

Years spent watching videos from random dudes on the web, and than you’ll realize how a properly build Masterclass can open your mind to professionalism.

Perfecting Yourself

No more feeling like the rip-off version of your favorite creator. You will become original and at the same time, your #1 fan.

Shine like a unique Artist

You will be what you always dreamt to be. The only thing that will be needed? Continue to do you dream job with joy and perseverance.

Gain more clients

By watching at the professional you’ve become and how well you are positioned on the web, clients requests will become the practical organic result.

What? A little sneak peek?

It Is NOT MADE for you, if:


You're looking for a fast solution
You don't want to take some hard work
You’re only in this for the money or attention
You're into shortcuts or magic tactic

Still wondering if it will work for you?

I get it… another Masterclass about Color… nothing new.

You’ve probably been let down by paid courses covering the same basics you’ve heard on youtube videos or from free masterclasses.

And investing in your career feels scary. Especially when a part of you is thinking:

“How do I know if this is going to work for me?”

So let’s talk about what the word “work” means to you: if with “work”, you mean reaching thousands of followers overnight (or starting to get paid tomorrow) – then no, definitely not.

But if it means you’ll have:

  • Started with a well planned roadmap
  • Discovered what makes your style, taste and self being unique on a very competitive field
  • A roadmap to be followed
  • An inner circle that will help and support you through the highs & lows of this journey.
  • A way of working build to last forever with you
  • A workflow that will make everything look the way you want (and make your clients feel that they paid for a true professional) 
  • Laid down the method that will help you becoming a true professional.

Then yes, it will work.

Because creating a successful professional life isn't about how 'special' or 'lucky' you are: it's about having the courage to start the journey, committing the slow growth method, and taking all the steps, one by one.
I can’t promise you’ll double your sales or become one of the finest in the industry after taking the Masterclass…

But I can assure you that if you put in the effort, follow the steps, and commit to moving forward, you’ll have all of the tools you need and will feel more confidence in your abilities and in yourself. And if you don’t know who I’m talking about, let me tell you this:

If after 2 weeks you feel like this Masterclass still doesn't fit you, we'll give you 100% of the money invested back to you! No hard feelings, that's just to let you understand how confident I am with this.

FAQS

You’ve got questions. We’ve got answers.

“Why should I pay for this when all the content is on YouTube for free?”

Excellent question! YouTube and Google have thousands of free resources to help you start a professional career, so if you’re strapped for cash, it’s a great place to start!

With PCM, you don’t have to sort through all the information on your own. It’s all the steps you need to start & grow, in the right order. So instead of spending your precious time consuming endless free videos, you can focus your attention on implementing the skills you’ll learn to your own channel. I’m also showing you a behind-the-scenes look at my decision making process when color grading, my workflows, and how I work with my clients (all info you definitely can’t find for free).

“I don’t trust myself to complete the course. How can I guarantee I will action the lessons into practice?”

We know how important accountability is to creating a professional career, which is why every student gets access to the Plasmaverse (discord community). Inside, you’ll get to connect with other creators from all over the world who also need an accountability boost. If you’re ever stuck on a module, looking for encouragement, or need a potent shot of motivation to get things done, just pop it in the group!

“Will this help me if I’ve already started my own Career? If I’m not a complete zero?”

I spend few lessons talking and looking through how to decide what to do with your life. But if you’ve done this, you can go ahead and skip this one. This course will still help you if you want to learn how to come up being original, find your own style, refine your production workflow, and tons more.

But it probably isn’t for you if you’ve mastered Davinci Resolve, understand how to properly sell yourself, and have successfully pool of clients.

“How long is the course?”

PCM is broken into 10 modules and hours and hours of lessons… why not a specific number? Because it gets updated time by time. It’s all the time NEEDED to properly teach you all these things.

“This sounds cool! But I don’t have time to commit to a course right now.”

No worries! Life can get pretty chaotic, which is why I created this to be a go-at-your-own pace course. You can binge watch all the lessons on the first day, do 1 module a month, or take 3 months if you need! You’ll also have lifetime access to this course, so you can revisit it when you are ready to tackle the course in your own time.

“How do I know this is actually going to work for me?”

If you find you’re not feeling more confident about how to progress with Color Grading or satisfied with the course, that’s where the 14 Day Satisfaction Guarantee comes in. Email my team here: info@plasma.film and we’ll give you your money back.

“What gear & tools do I need to make use of this course?”

The best software isn’t the one you have. It’s the one you master. You don’t need to blow money on fancy gadgets and gear to make the most out of this course. All you need is Davinci Resolve (FREE version), a computer for editing, and the courage to try new things. I’ll suggest you also good things to purchase during time, but that’s enough for your start.

“Language of the Masterclass?”

At the launch of the Masterclass the course will completely be in English BUT Multi language Subs are coming!

“What do I do if I still have questions?”

Awesome! Send them over to my team at info@plasma.film and we’ll get back to you ASAP.
