The Finish Line has recently installed two high-spec finishing suites at Fitzrovia Studios in Camden, and at the heart of both rooms are the Flanders Scientific XMP550 reference monitors.
Recognised as one of the UK’s leading post-production companies, The Finish Line selected the XMP series to support its growing demand for high-end HDR and theatrical workflows. With consistency now critical across broadcast, streaming and cinema delivery, choosing the right monitoring was a key decision in the build.
“We’ve found the Flanders XMP series to be consistently the gold standard,” said Zeb Chadfield, Founder of The Finish Line. “Even for theatrical grading, we choose to do our main passes on glass as a priority. The perfection and consistency of the panels translates beautifully to the cinema, whether we’re grading natively to DCI-P3 or working in HDR and delivering via Dolby Vision cinema trims. These are without a doubt the best reference monitors we’ve ever used.”
Fitzrovia Studios, home to Fitzrovia Post and other creative partners, offers a fully accessible, client-focused environment with attended sessions, Dolby Atmos mixing, ADR, podcasting, and delivery services all under one roof. The Finish Line now provides embedded picture finishing and delivery services from within the building.
Across its distributed operation, The Finish Line currently runs over 30 finishing systems, all relying on Flanders Scientific reference monitors for their colour-critical work. These new Camden-based suites add flexibility for productions looking to complete picture and audio post in a single, unified space, while maintaining the same trusted standards.
“We built our workflows around flexibility,” Chadfield added, “but the quality bar never moves. With the XMP550, we’re confident the accuracy is unmatched regardless of what we are outputting. That’s the perfect foundation to work from with full confidence in our pipeline from end to end.”
While remote and embedded workflows remain at the core of The Finish Line’s operations, this new physical presence at Fitzrovia Studios gives productions an attended option that never compromises on quality. It’s also a clear signal of the company's ongoing commitment to the highest standards of monitoring, finishing and delivery regardless of where the work happens.
With a cloud-first infrastructure, unmatched HDR capacity and a team of colourists and finishing artists based across the UK, The Finish Line continues to lead the way in distributed post globally. And when it comes to monitoring, Flanders Scientific remains their reference of choice.
