As an actor, filmmaker and entrepreneur, Dennis Adhiswara relies on the advancement of technology to support his daily activities.
'Gadgets help me connect to the outside world, allowing me to have a portable office,' he said.
Dennis said he could travel to as many as five cities in two weeks; therefore he needed compact gadgets with good specifications.
'Expensive gadgets do not guarantee quality. I'm always looking for affordable gadgets that perform well,' the 32-year-old said.
Dennis entered the film industry in 1999 as an independent film maker and started acting in 2001.
He is known for his role in teen flicks Ada Apa Dengan Cinta? (What's Up With Cinta?), Ayat-ayat Cinta (Love Verses) and Sang Pencerah (The Enlightened One).
In 2012, Dennis founded online video content provider Layaria as a platform for online video makers, filmmakers and other talents to channel their creativity to get into the industry.
Layaria now has two studios in Jakarta and Surabaya and 70 partnering creators in 14 cities across Indonesia.
'I also organize workshops for online video makers, and sometimes act as their producers,' Dennis said.
Despite his busy schedule managing his business, Dennis said he could not leave acting completely. In his next movie that is scheduled for release next month, Pizza Man, Dennis plays an obstetrician.
'I will also be involved with Ada Apa Dengan Cinta 2,' he said.
Samsung Galaxy K Zoom
This is the only smartphone that I use to communicate, for work and to have fun. It has 10x optical zoom with a 20 megapixel camera, good enough to take high-quality pictures and to record videos. The processor is also great, allowing me to operate many applications and it has an 8-10 hour battery life.
Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro
I'm very mobile so I need a light laptop. I use this 1-kilogram laptop to type on Microsoft Office, to make video presentations and as it can be folded to form a tablet, I also use it to read e-books and magazines. I also installed HitFilm and Adobe Film Premiere editing software.
Game applications
I love playing games in my spare time. I like playing Mortal Kombat X and almost all games from the Kairosoft game developer.
