There are video and filmmaking tools that can take the horror out of making a hit Halloween movie, as crafting a film is both a daunting and laborious task. Ask any filmmaker, and especially an indie creator, like director Justin Denton, who’s new horror flick Curse of the Sin Eater was just released on Amazon Prime Video, and made possible by Blackmagic Design's software.

Creating 90 minutes of perfection is not easy. So you can understand why filmmakers are always looking for the best workflow that the tech world can offer. “I’ve been in the film industry for over 20 years on major television productions and $200M+ features,” says Denton. He told us that for this production “DaVinci Resolve was our hub for the film. We used the same Resolve project across all the major stages of production.” He adds, “This was the best overall pipeline I’ve ever worked within.”
