BELOW THE SCENE
People will call it 'Behind the scenes' but for this publication, I've chosen to use the word 'below' in place of 'behind'. When we talk about dramas and movies, the only people we see are the actors and actresses but a movie is definitely beyond these set of people, there are more people who do more work than these 'stars'. There we have the directors, the writers, the producers, the light and sound people, the costumiers, the make up artists, the technical people, the list is endless. These selfless people as I like to call them tend to put in a great amount of energy to something they would not get according credit for, of course their names are always written at the end of the movies but beyond that, they seem invisible to the real world. This picture potrays the energy contributed by a set of sticks just to hold in the stage for someone else and the truth is, these sticks are not even seen to the audience because they don't seem to look quite nice or attractive. But sincerely, there's a lot beauty in them...
So today, I raise my hat for those whose works are so important, yet invisible!
So today, I send salute to those who work selflessly for the shine of other persons!
Today, I halt my foot for those sticks that tirelessly work BELOW THE SCENE!
