About Me

R. HEMACHANDRAN, Student

Sri Manakula Vinayagar College of Engineering

Puducherry , India

     I m a 20 year old, born and bought up in a Union territory with a French twist. A jack of all trades could also be a master of many, that's exactly what describes me the best. If there's one force that drives me, It's my passion, for passion is the only force that makes life worth living.

     I am an Artist leading a life with Arts as my passion. While my likes and dislikes vary from one to another what I really love is Photography, Pencil sketching, 3D Modelling, Visual effects, Graphic Designing and Poetry, well, the list doesn't end here as the universe is incredible and makes me fall in love with various other things that comes by the way.

I have been awarded with Bharathi Yuvakendra Award for my excellence in various talents in my childhood at the age of 11.

#Music>>

     Apart from this, there’s one thing that fills every soul and make it complete. I bet but no one could imagine a life without MUSIC, but for me, Life is all about music.

     One of my love for my passion is Music and so I am a Guitarist with a personal as well as professional experience of 15 years.

     

     Taking a closer view on my journey’s music, I started my journey as a Basic Acoustic Guitarist when I was 5 years old. Later, I completed my Grade exams at Trinity College, London with Merit Results till Grade 2 in Classical Guitar.

     I have made my performances at over 20+ stages as an Electrical Guitarist, Bass Guitarist, Acoustic Guitarist, Classical Guitarist and Semi-Acoustic Guitarist.

      My recent stages as a Guitarist include Pecofes 2k15, Pecofes 2k16, AURA PIMS 2k17, SPANDAN JIPMER 2k17...

     I am as well as a Basic Keyboard player and a Melodician.

     I proceed making Own compositions and Background Scores for short films that brings me the sense of soul satisfaction using Image-Line FL Studio, Magix Music Maker and Ableton Live Studio.

     If I had to point out at that one person who has not only inspired and influenced me, but moulded me, It will forever be A.R. Rahman, the man who took music to a pride level. The most pleasant music I have learnt from him is.... silence!!

 #Psychology and religious views>>

     While all these remain intact, Psychology is one of those subjects that draws my interest. I always used to observe and analyze the behavioral patterns and psychology of people around me.

     Though I am not professionalized in it still, I have counselled people who suffer from depressions and are at the suicidal borders. After meeting many of them, now I have my confidence by which I can turn any depressive person to a happier state.

     Though I m a good practical problem solver, and yes, I love practical problem solving, I have solved many issues and problems in many of the lives of people around me, and of course, the real essence of happiness lies in the smiles and happiness that sparkle from people around us, and that’s even more sensible when we stand as the reason behind it.

      You could call me as an Atheist, but I hope that word is not enough to state me. Since, I am not completely against any religion, and I do believe in science (not the soul thing) behind every rituals followed by every religion which was created by ancestors for the well-being of humans and nature.

     If one is right and just to his heart and mind, there would no driving force like the character named God to follow all the scientifically associated rituals.

#Animation, Visual Effects_&_Graphic_Designing>>

     Animation and Visual Effects have always thrilled kids, but I just didn’t end up being thrilled but opened up another dimension of my life, by which the rage for learning them was the first step, which eventually turned out to be a Graphic Designer at the age of 12 with knowledge of Adobe Photoshop.

     As I grew, My interests towards designing just didn’t fade away but only grew stronger. At the age of 13, I developed into a 3D Modelling Artist (CG) with knowledge of Autodesk Maya and Autodesk 3ds Max.

     At the age of 14, I was much more focused and engaged into the various fields of Animation like Dynamics, Texturing, Lighting, Animating and Rendering with a wide range of Professional softwares like Houdini, Nextlimit Realflow, Cinema 4D, Maxwell, ZBrush, Rayfire and Adobe Master collection series.

     I also engaged into the field of Editing with knowledge of softwares like Sony vegas, Mpeg4 and Adobe Premier Pro.

     To make visuals to a next step, its essential to add some Visual effects (VFX) scenes where I use Adobe After Effects. I have made my Lectures on 3D Animation at Sri Ganesh College of Engineering, Puducherry and Bharathiyar Palkalai Kazhagam, Puducherry in the year 2013 at my age of 15.

     To possess better knowledge in this field, I worked as an Intern for 2 months as a Graphic Designer at Agni Fx at my age of 16 in the year 2015.

#Photography>>

    It started from the age of 16 out of my own interest. There comes a Photography artist whenever one starts to love every frame of Nature and thus, it happened for me too.

I did not have any costly DSLR cameras to carry on my passion. It just simply started with 8MP Cameras on Mobile phones.

Later, my friends afforded me a DSLR Professional Camera which boosted up the fine tunes in my photographs.

My photographs have bagged the 2nd place in the photography contests conducted at VIT Vellore, VIT Chennai and Kongu Engineering College, Erode in the year 2017.

I use Adobe Lightroom  for fine tune adjustments and touch-ups which will boost up every pixel and provide the required depth of what I wanted to visualize exactly in a photography.

The perfect lesson I learnt from the field of Photography is, It doesn't matter of any equipment in any field, but only the interest and love for it!

#Writing>>

    Every man can feel, but only for whom can feel every definition of something, the door opens for expressive words through inks on bamboo sheets, and so happened for me!

     As I said already, I like to analyze psychology of people around me, and to sketch few marvelous thoughts from them, there was a need for a medium, where I chose to write them down as snippets in English.

     It became a flavor of addiction which knocked me to feel and think for shaping each and every word such that it conveys the exact feel and mesmerization which I feel from any moment or thought.

      At first, the series of words patched up to cook beautiful lines, and then, the series of lines got patched up to bloom into wonderful poems.

     I started writing poems in English first and later in Tamil. Since I studied Tamil only till my class III, it was tough for me to express in Tamil, but the love for Tamil never made me to construct simpler lines.

#Pencil Sketching>>

     It started from the age of 16 out of my own interest as that of Photography. It started from a Facebook post in my news feed one day.

The post had some illustrations which showed off how to draw a realistic eye which inspired me to make a pencil sketch.

It was the moment I realized my potential on pencil sketching. It taught me that nothing comes out without a try, which everyone should make it!

Some of my Pencil sketch works are there, in this blog, which you can view.
