Insignificant

Every once in a while i manage to get into this comfy spot with respect to the knowledge i've gained over the past years in the field of animation and film making. That feeling of "Wow!...i know so much......i'm so good at this......i feel like god!". Fortunately for me, more often then not some hot-shot comes around and shoots my notions down with a double barrel shot to the head!!......BAM!

This time around the Hot-Shot is a man who goes by the name of Amitabh Singh. Ace Live-Action Camera man turned Cinematographer. I don't know much about him, i don't think anyone does. That's the kind of man he is...Extreme introvert....low profile.....soft-spoken......relentlessly dedicated to his work--Brilliant beyond imagination.

The studio i work with hired his services as a cinematographer on one of our bigger 3d animation projects. I've learnt so much from him over the past week about composition, lensing, dramatic impact and more.

I've got some notes i made on the stuff he talked about and explained to lesser mortals like me.....I'll be putting em up as soon as he's done with his sessions at the studio.....i'll be able to connect the gyaan (information) much better then.

For now here's a sketch i did of him
