A question for Matz

ruby-talk
1

I have no idea where to ask this so, as Matz posts here, I will ask
here. I apologize for any inconvenience.

I just saw Black Lagoon and the director of photography is Yukihiro
Matsumoto. Could that, by any chance, be you?

I don't think so. Both Yukihiro and Matsumoto are common names among
Japanese.

I love how the answer is "I don't think so" instead of just "no."
It's like there's a very slim possibility that you were the director
of photography for this film and just can't quite remember it :slight_smile:

I know that people can do many things. It would not have surprised me
to learn that you have such skills in your arsenal along with
programming. :slight_smile:

Thank you for responding.

Hey, I can sympathize with Matz here. I also sometimes suspect that
I've got an evil twin whose deeds I get blamed for, but then again...

I've just googled. The directory of photography of the Anime: Black
Lagoon is "Yukihiro Masumoto" (増元 由紀大). Note that he has one
less "t" in his family name.

There do seem to be quite a few Matsumoto's in the movie/tv industry though:

Matsumoto really is a very very common family name in Japan. Every office has at least one!
Yukihiro is a fairly common given name too.
