According to Sudip, colors move parallel to human emotions: “if you see an off-saturated scene, it would mean there is pathos, sadness or lifelessness. Blue color tone would mean wintery cold, harsh tone. Similarly, warm tones like red indicate happy tones.” So far, he has professionally worked on more than 55 films, and these days, he does an average of 4 films every month, using Da Vinci, Scratch and Apple Color softwares and giving equal priority to music videos and television commercials.
