Who we are

We believe that passionate filmmakers with original ideas should be given the opportunity to see their projects reach wide audiences. We nurture ideas from the very beginning and see them all the way through development, production, finishing post and delivery.

We champion every production that matters to us. We strive for perfection in the visual and the creative and push for projects big or small that come through our doors to become world class.

What we do

Our projects include a slate of high-end short films, theatrical feature films and episodic media for high-end TV.

Our production experience includes over 10 original short films, with talent such as Ella-Rae Smith and Charlie Hiscock and festival selections at BIFA-qualifying Bolton, Sunderland, Sunrise and NIEFF among others.

Our post production experience boasts over 70 commissions across narrative projects of short and long form, including a short starring Javier Bardem and international feature co-productions.

Our future

We are currently developing a slate of genre features and series. Our first feature, a body horror based on the short story “Exquisite Corpse” by acclaimed Scottish author Kirsty Logan, is set to go into production in Scotland in 2025.

In February 2025 DISAUTHORITY is expanding with a new VFX arm opening in Bangalore.

Colour

Baselight is our premium grading system of choice, offering the best in the industry, which gives our clients peace of mind - utilising the highest-degrees of colour science and accuracy. Coupled with our industry-leading Sony BVM-HX310 Trimaster Reference Monitor, our Baselight TWO system gives us the confidence and ease to know your rushes will really sing.

Our premium suite, Grade 1, gives our clients access to a cinema-level grading experience in Baselight, bridging the gap between the grade and the cinema room, which also features 5.1 Surround Sound.

Our secondary suite, Grade 2, runs Resolve. We adopt a set of hybridised suites to suit as wide a variety of productions as possible, regardless of budget.

We work exclusively using scene-referenced; ACES managed-workflows, and are equipped to deliver content in 4K, HDR and beyond. We also have the flexibility to work in other client-specified colour workflows too, such as where specific working colour-spaces have been specified.

QC & Delivery

Completing our air-tight post production pipeline is our QC & Delivery Services.

We are committed to being a theatrical-first post production facility, and as-such, have become specialists in DCP & ProRes Authoring & Quality Control. All mastering and packaging is done in-house, or we can package and partner-up with external vendors/facilities depending on the brief.

We run Automated File Checks (AQC / PSE) on All Final Deliverables (Master Files & Viewing-Spec Files) in-conjunction with an Eyeball QC performed by our experienced technical operators, noting every detail to ensure they adhere to the project’s delivery specifications.

All DCPs are QC’ed in a cinema next-door to the London Office. All screens are 4K Sony Picture Quality and are fitted with Dolby Digital (5.1) Surround Sound.
