Toast of London


Grading
Work by: Ross Baker

Toast of London returned to halo for Series 2. The time period is meant to be slightly unclear adding to the conceit that Toast (main character) is trapped in a time that no longer exists. This is very emphasised by very outdated mobile phone and laptop not to mention his somewhat outdated wardrobe. Director Michele Cumming wanted to have a slight 1970’s twist to the grade whilst also maintaining a very contemporary feel. This was achieved by pushing the warmth of the interiors thereby adding a creamy richness to the scenes. It worked beautifully.
