In this episode of the Color Timer Podcast, I speak with the multi-talented Daria Fissoun, CSI.

Daria is a highly skilled colorist, compositor, and certified DaVinci Resolve trainer with over a decade of experience in the post-production industry. She is also a Mixing Light contributor.

We dove into the details of Daria’s latest project, a literal thesis about the etymology used in color correction and grading. Where do these terms come from?
