The High

Things would never be the same again
as i walk into our room, the editorial room, as me and Rims have named it.....i felt the terseness suddenly dispelled.
This was the room that i used to cringe walking into just acouple of weeks ago
i would use every excuse to stay out of it,
It felt cold, unwelcome and deary......more than that
i felt unwelcome, unwanted like a stranger.
The more i avoided the more it hurt, to the point that i couldnt take it anymore...this cannot be happening....

past three days filming for our documentry was all it took to change everything.
HIGH ON LIFE....
Me, Ree and Rich sure were!
was shot amidst the bustling MG road, yelahanka highway, christ college and popular local pubs.
3 days shooting round the clock left us exhausted and HIGH ON LIFE.
Now that the filming is more or less over, life feels like a constant image caught through the camera lense. Zooming out you get the bigger picture, and how the subject needs to be 'centered' and zoom in, perfection comes in view, you need to maintain a balance between these two to capture the perfect scene.

Even our vocabulary is mutated with techno jargons.
"Hey i saw this hot guy, my audio blanked out and video went on an overdrive".
"The lights just came back...wait a sec! need to white balance".

Cant wait to get back and hijack Rich's soft new mattress....and pester Tina to get something outta her bountyful larder to feed us hungry souls....
The cold, deary dungeon metamorphosed into a warm atmosphere, HIGH ON LIFE.
The title of our documentary.
