Ep 3: I ask myself, What's it like to be a Director of Photography on a film & the responsibilities?
Hi, I’m Ross Clarkson, HKSC, I’ve been in the Film and Television industry for 35+ years.
My experience ranges from shooting news in Australia in the '80s to directing commercials in Hong Kong and China in the ’90s to being Director/Director of Photography/Camera Operator for many Feature films/Commercials in Hong Kong, Thailand, Canada, the United Kingdom and Bulgaria.

This is the director's vision. The version released was from Sean the producer, not me.

    Hello Mr. Ross. I've recently gotten into editing vlogs and I'm really enjoying it. However, I feel that there's definitely room for improvement in my editing skills. What do you think I should focus on to get better at it?

      @@rossclarksonHKSC I wish the fights were longer; I loved the released cut and I think your cut will probably be even better, I can see it, I loved Undisputed. You should post footage of your cut, but TLK is very strict when it comes to using content from the movie, so perhaps use a different thumbnail and a title that doesn't highlight the movie's name "The Last Kumite". Man, your cut seems much better, much darker as well.
