Indian film editor Lawrence Kishore is employed in the Tamil film industry. Lawrence Kishore, who made his feature film debut in “Nisabdham,” was once the assistant to film editor T S Suresh. However, “Aval” was the one who piqued interest even before its publication. Only “Aval” could convey to the general audience or moviegoers how much thought went into the editing.
Lawrence, who was born on May 22, 1990, had a talent for graphic design. He therefore made the decision to finish his undergraduate studies in Visual Communication (VISCOM) at Loyola College in Chennai. He even finished an animation course at MAAC. More specifically, he was told to join VISCOM by his music teacher. That was the beginning of his trip. He plays the piano, basically. He was an editor of short films in college.
Later, he entered the film business and began working as an assistant to seasoned film editor T.S. Suresh. He collaborated with Suresh on a number of movies, including Vanakkam Chennai (2013), Vaalu (2015), Irumbu Kuthirai (2014), and Inam (2013).
Following a lengthy collaboration with T. S. Suresh, Lawrence Kishore transitioned to independence as an editor for the 2017 Tamil short film “Nishabdham.” Another Kannada feature film on which he served as an independent editor was “Noorondu Nenapu,” which came out in 2017.
Later, he went into the film industry and started working as T.S. Suresh’s assistant, a seasoned film editor. He worked with Suresh on several films, such as Inam (2013), Vanakkam Chennai (2013), Vaalu (2015), and Irumbu Kuthirai (2014). After working with T. S. Suresh for a long time, Lawrence Kishore became an independent editor for the 2017 Tamil short film “Nishabdham.” “Noorondu Nenapu,” a Kannada feature film released in 2017, was another project he worked as an independent editor on.
Yes, the Tamil horror film “Aval” was the one that brought him to the point where editing was becoming a difficult task overall. Lawrence was welcomed aboard with a great deal of confidence since Santosh Shivan, the crew of “Aval,” had highly praised him.
The editor had an amazing time working on “Aval.” Upon meeting Mani Ratnam’s assistant director Milind Rau, he was handed a showreel of Siddharth to edit, which featured a terrifying scenario at the opening. Lawrence’s proficiency in Hindi helped him land the multilingual project “Aval” (which was screened in both Hindi and Telugu). Lawrence attended KV School, which contributed to his strong Hindi language skills.

The first movie presentation reel that Lawrence was handed by director Milind had already been somewhat edited, using CGI effects and a background music. After watching Milind’s show reel for the first time, Lawrence saw that he was a skilled technician.
This gave Lawrence the motivation to work harder on the horror film “Aval” and to start seeing more Hollywood productions with a horror theme. Editor Lawrence believes it’s a difficult assignment to scissor the horror films. According to his theory, one must first insert the sound, listen to it, and then decide whether to keep or remove a frame. Lawrence Kishore so gained knowledge from editing “Aval.”
Lawrence was positive that the sequence in “Aval” that required his attention was underwater. Additionally, the movie featured experienced prosthetic makeup artists like Preetisheel Singh, who altered video of the frame to appear ghostly during editing.
In essence, Lawrence was aware of the film’s disturbing sequences, which include the scenes with the water and windows, but some CGI still had to be added. Lawrence found that editing Aval’s flashback scenes to be particularly difficult since he had to picture a deranged man whose actions were solely explained by words. Lawrence was able to obtain the visuals and complete several editing transitions thanks to this. Lawrence found the second part of “Aval” to be extremely difficult.
In order to fully comprehend the film “Aval,” Siddharth made numerous trips with the director during the filming process. He witnessed Shreyaas Krishna perfectly encapsulating the moments with his cinematic appeal, and this elevated the film to a whole new level.
The film ‘Aval’ has been elevated to a new level by every technical area, including the collaboration of the VFX team, sound design, and camera framing. Finally, everything has paid off handsomely. After the movie ended, Siddharth gave Lawrence the greatest compliments.
Throughout the filming of “Aval,” Siddharth traveled extensively with the director to ensure he understood the picture in its entirety. He saw how Shreyaas Krishna’s cinematic appeal flawlessly captured the moments, taking the movie to a whole new level. Every technical aspect of “Aval,” such as the VFX team’s work, sound design, and camera framing, has added a new dimension to the movie. All of this has, at last, paid off nicely. Siddharth bestowed the highest praises on Lawrence following the film’s conclusion.
