Never thought I'd get back to singing professionally, let alone for films. @shan_0029 thought otherwise and brought me on for "I've Arrived". Rehearsed, tracked and DT'ed the song in a day, and peppered a little studio magic. #NaaneVandhen

#WhiteRose, A @dirrajshekar film 🎬

[Arya @arya_offl]

Powerful song from movie #WhiteRose 🔥🔥👍
Wishing the whole team a huge success 🤗

Ever wondered #HowWeColourGrade? 🎨 Dive into our process: Mood setting with Primaries, crafting light with Curves, chasing the Kodak vibe, fine-tuning hues, and the final balance tweak. It's tailored to each project. Curious or wanna chat? Say hi below! Have an epic week! 🌟

[SHASHIN NO SAMURAI @ShashinSamurai]

Excited to share a behind-the-scenes look at our grading process with @playpresley! He requested a look LUT for a concert video, sparking the idea of a stage-by-stage peek. What do you think?

🎥 on @SonyAlpha
🎞️ & 🎨 on @Blackmagic_News' DaVinci Resolve 18.

@KithRags @oopc92 No? I like it too! ❤️❤️

[SHASHIN NO SAMURAI @ShashinSamurai]

You can set up a hundred shots to look candid but the spontaneous ones hit different. Captured @abhinav_krish making a beeline for @oopc92 after not seeing her for 5 weeks and managed to get this shot. Using @SonyAlpha with the FE 50mm f/1.8 lens. Yes, we do events. Get in touch!

[oopsipokedu🔪 @oopc92]

reunited with my roommate after 5 weeks 💜 ty @ShashinSamurai for the pictures!

[SHASHIN NO SAMURAI @ShashinSamurai]

@oopc92 Nothing but the best for you two. 🙌🏾🫶

I can’t believe it’s actually out! SZN TWO’s newest, “Take Me Away” just dropped. Directing this was massive fun and the edit even more so. Can’t wait to collaborate on the next one with them! #Filmmaker #IndieMusic #MusicVideo https://t.co/uSyh7zCTc6

[SHASHIN NO SAMURAI @ShashinSamurai]

I love it when a project comes together at the end. New music video dropping early tomorrow so stay tuned!

Some eyebleach so the week goes swimmingly. I love that my @CanonUSAimaging 60D can still produce footage like this! Graded on @Blackmagic_News DaVinci Resolve 17 of course.

In the eventuality that this sinking ship of an app comes crashing down, most of you know where to find me. For those who aren’t sure, no worries. Head on over to https://t.co/8ZLAAhm0Rn and say “Hi”. #Twittershutdown #professionalphotographer #filmmaker

[SHASHIN NO SAMURAI @ShashinSamurai]

Dear @Blackmagic_News. You didn't need to blow my mind with a feature that's seemingly innocuous like "Detect Scene Cuts". You have made my life irreversibly easier now. Thank you. #DaVinciResolve #Resolve17 #FilmEditor #Filmmaking

[SHASHIN NO SAMURAI @ShashinSamurai]

Filmed using both a @Canon_India EOS R6 and my decade-old workhorse, the EOS 60D.

As the name might suggest, Japanese culture influences a lot of our craft and aesthetics. It goes without saying that we're also massive fans of the #JapanNationalFootballTeam. Enjoy some Spicy Prawn Ramen / ピリ辛海老ラーメン. 頑張れ日本！
