One identity, two practices

From the set to the grading panel.

On set as a director of photography, and at the grade as founder of Starry Lumiere Labs — the same intent carries from the first setup to the final pass. The work above interleaves both: a frame that was lit and a film that was finished, read as one reel.

About

A cinematographer with a colorist’s perspective.

Shivshankar Noorambada shoots and grades from Bengaluru. Working both as a DOP and as the colorist behind Starry Lumiere Labs, he treats capture and finish as a single, continuous craft — which is why the images here refuse to sit in separate rooms.
