Company 3 has added Colourist Yerlan Tanayev to its grading roster. He will work out of the Los Angeles office.
Tanayev’s career spans feature films, commercials, and music videos. He honed his skills through a variety of roles, starting in VFX and transitioning to colour grading. His credits include work with directors such as Aisultan Seit, Shapxo, and Jake Scott; cinematographers including Natasha Brier, Azamat Dulatov, and Nikita Kuzmenko; and brands such as Adidas, Apple, and BMW.
Work from Tanayev includes commercials Adidas Originals ‘Focalistic,’ and Les Mills ‘Ceremony,’ Nissan ‘E-Power,’ and music videos Maslo Chernogo Tmina ‘Unknown World,’ and ADONXS ‘Kiss Kiss Goodbye.’
“I’m truly excited to join Company 3 — a place that has always represented the highest standard of creativity and craft,” says Tanayev. “Being surrounded by such talented artists and inspiring projects motivates me to keep growing and pushing my creative boundaries. For me, colour grading is a way of telling stories through pure image and emotion, and Company 3 is the perfect place to take that passion even further. I’m excited to grow, collaborate, and craft images that stay with people long after the screen fades to black. I can’t wait for what’s ahead.”
“Yerlan’s talent and dedication to the craft of color grading are evident in his impressive body of work,” says Company 3 CEO Stefan Sonnenfeld. “We are thrilled to welcome him to Company 3. His unique perspective and artistic sensibility will undoubtedly enhance our creative capabilities and further solidify our position as a leader in post-production.”
Tom Poole, Chief Creative Officer at Company 3, commented, “We are incredibly excited to have Yerlan join our talented team of colorists. His reel demonstrates a keen eye for detail and a passion for visual storytelling that aligns perfectly with Company 3. We look forward to seeing the incredible work he’ll produce here.”
