What is the basic nature of your job?

We are into a process called Tele cine maintenance. This refers to the technique of bringing the right color tone to the frames when shown on screen.

What is the purpose of this process?

Films shot outdoors or in sets have a natural shade. Our process involves infusing richness and maintaining balance with the background and overall color scheme.

What is the technology involved?

We have a remote panel consisting of Black, gamma and white modes which are the basic operational controls. We also have color panels for bringing different shades with the basic colors. The picture’s variations could be seen in the oscilloscope.

 
What are the benefits of the process?


It is definitely cost-effective. It can also be used for making the film easily adaptable for satellite telecast using digital conversion technology. Therefore, both for studio and satellite purposes, the same process can give excellent results.

Do you have to interact and make changes as per directors’ wishes?

Well, I mostly work with cinematographers. They are all very talented and professional. They know exactly what they want. I try to help them by giving the result that they expect.

Thank you, Mr. Ravi. It was great talking to you.
