The principle

Balance. Look. Print. Trim.

The tools are built around the order a film lab used: balance the image first, let the look or film stock do the colour work, make creative shifts under the print, and keep anything after it to small trims. Clear inputs, honest descriptions, and a workflow you can explain to a client.
