Project Overview
In September 2025, Senol Wijebandara and I created a creative commercial for Ride Energy Drink Sri Lanka. The goal was to showcase the brand from a creator’s perspective, blending cinematic visuals, energy-driven shots, and modern storytelling techniques to make the product stand out.
My Role
- Director of Photography (DOP)
- Editor
- Colorist
I was responsible for cinematography, lighting setup, and post-production editing to create a polished, high-energy commercial that captured the brand’s personality.
Style & Approach
The commercial was executed in a cinematic and energetic style, combining dynamic shots, creative angles, and controlled lighting to enhance the visual impact. A dome light and RGB lights were used to create vibrant and eye-catching scenes, while careful camera work emphasized movement and energy.

- High-end camera setup: Lumix S5, GH5 S with Sigma Cine 35mm and 50mm lenses.
