Amol Gole is an Indian cinematographer who shot Hindi films like Stanley Ka Dabba, Hawaa Hawaai, Elizabeth Ekadashi, Touring Talkies, Investment etc. He debuted as an Independent cinematographer with the film Stanley Ka Dabba directed by Amol Gupte. As cinematographer Amol used a still DSLR camera, Canon's 7D, to make sure the kids (who were shot without missing school, only on Saturdays and during vacation-time) could be themselves, free and feckless and open to constant improvisation. The results are striking, a film that feels both stunningly real and yet beautifully textured, color-corrected immaculately enough to look markedly un-digital on the big screen. Besides feature films, he has also shot many ad films, documentaries and short films. [1]
