Dear All,
Please pass on to the TIG:
Earlier today we heard the sad news that colorist Jim Hogan, known to most of us as Hogi, died last (Friday) evening. He had been unwell for some time, but had just been let out of hospital and so we hoped he was improving - but this was not to be. No more details known at this time. In the words of his own email signature tag: "one small step ,,,, ONE GIANT MAN".

Thoughts for the family, colleagues and friends of Hogi.
Ken Robinson Senior Colourist
I had the pleasure of meeting Hogi when we were both working in Amsterdam. I had just moved to Europe and although we didn't work together, he really took me under his wing. He was always up for a night out, a good meal, a bottle or two of wine and a lot of laughs. He taught me what it is to be a proper colourist as well as always keeping a professional attitude. He was a truly great man. My heart goes out to all of his family. He will be greatly missed.

Dear All,
I had the pleasure to work with Hogi during his time here in Germany and considered him a close friend ever since. I won't forget the fun we had here and all the little stories that happened.
I had a chance to visit him in hospital a few weeks ago and beside his health issues and weakness he was as charming as we all knew him to be.
Jim 'Hogi' Hogan will be sadly missed.
Kind regards,
Frank Hellmann...
