text by EUGENE BALAYAN
The ultimate sense of accomplishment comes to people who are able to use their expertise to bring their visions to life. Roger Kupelian, a celebrated matte artist concept painter, uses his vast experience in Hollywood to fulfill the passion he has carried since childhood.
Roger and his team at Fugitive Studios have worked on the graphics and concepts of such Hollywood blockbusters as the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Charlie Wilson’s War, The Mummy, Cloverfield, and many others. The young cinematographer has also tested himself in the role of a director in the documentary “Black Forest in the Mountains”. Risking his life in the trenches alongside Armenian fighters and amidst the devastated villages and towns, he brought the amazing story of their struggle to the world. His current project, East of Byzantium, is an attempt to tell the world about what is important to Armenians.
