Time for some lights, camera...

Action !!!

Its that time of the year when the summer internships are on the verge of completion and the junta is all eager to get back to campus and finally do something worthwhile :).

This summer has been truly great. Met and made good friends, read lots of novels and sifted through tons of scripts for our next venture. The high point of this entire summer was the team that I was working with during this internship of mine. The gang was awesome and the emphasis of the entire internship seemed to revolve around the focal point of all great discussions ...BAKAR

For the junta who have not experienced this phenomenon, here is the the dictionary meaning -

Bakar - Any random discussion without an iota of thought applied to it :)

So here I was engrossed in bakar sessions from the morning B'fast to the frequent coffee breaks to the evening dinner and in between made posters for an AUNTY-Smoking campaign that was launched here.

Ya, I was talking about sifting through scripts. I its a funny feeling how your approach changes towards a story when you are reading it from an angle of making a film. There were instances when I came across great stories but when I started to analyse the feasibility of that story as a script that can be done justice to by a camera then everything changes. The moment you feel that you won't be able to capture it it loses the charm. It has a positive impact though, you tend to focus on select stories and tend to go through lotsa scripts faster.

Though we have couple of projects in our hands now, we still are on the lookout for the ultimate script and here's were you can help us. If you feel you have a great idea/concept that can be built into a script for a short film please feel free to share it with us. There are no restriction on the scope of the idea so let ur ideas soar in weird directions.

disclaimer : This is not a contest but one thing is for sure If your script appeals us you would be playing an important part in bringing ur idea to life.


So let the ideas pour in...
