Industry-leading digital intermediate colorist Stephen Nakamura will join postproduction house Company 3 on Jan. 1.

The move will unite two of Hollywood's most sought after DI colorists -- Nakamura and Company 3 president and colorist Stefan Sonnenfeld -- along with the firm's team of feature, TV and commercial colorists.
