About Me
After graduated out of Film school in 2013, my dream job was to become the next Douglas Slocombe, he is Spielberg’s main DP. So, I went to Mauritius and I did an internship with a Film rental company that allowed me to hang around in they’re film sets.
After a while, I realize that my cinematographer career won’t rocks the sky at anytime soon because of diverse reason. I was a little bit lost back then. That same year, the free version of DaVinci Resolve 11 Lite was realized. I have downloaded a copy and tried few things with it. I instantly loved it. It felt like that was the oasis moment in the middle of the desert to me.
So I did put aside my cinematographer career and began to get more interested in Digital color manipulation.
I have found out that everyone can learn the program from different sources online but the problem was I felt that not all of this information can be trusted. That’s my opinion. My solution was to read more about it or attending classes setting next to an experienced senior colorist.
Since 2015, I have attended few classes with the International Colorist Academy such as the advanced class on DaVinci Resolve 12, HDR Colorist Masterclass, commercial colorist Masterclass, just to name a few. I have spent a heck of money to join these classes but looking back It was all worth it.
I have graded more than twenty projects under my belt. All, from various genre and budgets. For instance, I have assisted my friends’ projects with a low remuneration up to company Ads and award-winning short film.
Currently, I’m crossing finger for couple feature film jobs for this year.
