00:00The cost of shooting a film is at least double the cost of making a film.
00:09We are shooting without the need to say that it is digital.
00:14I think that is the biggest problem.
00:17I would say that it has become a curse of the producers.
00:21As soon as the world cinema changed, our Malayalam cinema also changed.
00:24The entire digital world has changed.
00:26We have become a digital maker in cinematography.
00:28But when we try to shoot Hollywood films in magazines,
00:34Malayalam directors and directors say that they like to shoot in films rather than digital.
00:41But again, there is a complete digitalization in cameras like RED and ARRI.
00:45If you can shoot in a film with the cost of digital cameras,
00:49or if you have the availability, will you go back to your old ways?
00:53Of course.
00:54What I still don't understand is that we have come to Malayalam cinema because of the lack of money.
01:02But in my estimation, the cost has increased.
01:06The cost of shooting a film is at least double the cost of making a film.
01:16The rent for the camera is very high.
01:21The hard disks that are spent for the camera are also very expensive.
01:27We are shooting without the need of a digital camera.
01:33I think that is the biggest problem.
01:36I think it is a curse of the industry.
01:38All the actors are facing the same problem.
01:41They want to take a shot from different angles.
01:44They want to shoot a film without any homework for an exam.
01:50All this is happening in Malayalam cinema.
01:53I can say this because I have worked in both.
01:57When I was in film industry, I worked in 25 films.
02:06I have worked in 5-6 digital films.
02:10We can understand this difference.
02:13We are spending more time in digital.
02:18We are still planning to shoot a film.
02:24Digital has become a curse of the producers.
02:31I don't mean to say that.
02:33Technology is still coming.
02:36There is a lot of technology in Malayalam cinema.
02:41What is the quality difference between digital and film?
02:52I think the quality is more in digital.
02:58I don't know if the new generation will see this.
03:02The quality is not the same.
03:04It is difficult when the quality increases.
03:10The quality is more in film.
03:15It is easy to shoot.
03:18We just need to reduce the light.
03:21The problem is that we don't use it properly.
03:26It is difficult to shoot a film.
