Agaarwal Packers and Movers

The computer monitor complains about the death of the printer recently.

Both characters listen intently as Lord Krishna speaks.

Monitor, still not really convinced with the idea even after divine assurance.

Simple animated TVC, Low-Budget, we tried to give out best within the budget. Two films were made. The concept was provided by the agency and we just topped it up a little to look good.

Both the 30 second clips were done within a span of 14 days. Involving talking cups and saucers, was a fun idea to begin with.

Pollution

A close-up of one of the billboards modified for the film. Hear no evil, see no evil and speak no evil.

Close up of a monkey. Note that no monkeys were actually shot for the film, instead they were created in 2D animation from existing photographs and then placed in 3D

Another angle on the Billboard

We gave some Post-Production support for a good cause. The film was made by Interference Techniques for participation in competitions.

What we did is simple. Since it would be prohibitively expensive to have the monkeys on billboards across the city, it was needed that some people like us did the cleanup of removing the actual billboard contents and replacing them with the three monkeys. See no Evil, Hear no Evil, Speak no Evil.

Global Hospitals

Innards of humans with lynard skynard… no just kidding…

It’s a very serious ad for Global Hospitals, Hydeerabad. The film was being created by Ramakanth Advertising, Hyderabad. The first samples that we sent were deemed to realistic to be in an advertisement and were asked to be toned down to make them mode of a model than actual organs. We were just happy to play Hollow Man.

Maths Apartment

The visualistion of Maths apartment is interesting. Why? well , you need to look closely. The bumper sticker would read “If you are so close… then u must be in my eyeballs … ”

Maths is a guy who is going thru this Alone thing …so alone that the visualisation needed to remove even the camera from the set ….duh !!!!! Except for the haaaaannnnnnd. Watch out for that horribble finger creature. Keeps popping from all kinda nooks and cranies. The hands main aim is to “finger” Math into coming out of his Alone thing… whatever that maybe.

On a serious note

Math’s apartment, 2 Fish in 3 parts and another one are 3 sides to the same story. One from the Fish’s point of view, the other from the owner’s point of view and the 3rd from the lucky cat’s point of view. Someday we will finish this set.

Dedicated Math’s apartment storyline and microsite will be available soon.

TV9 Channel ID

It’s nothing major… It’s just a channel ID… the kind that pops up and sort of interrupts the main course… Though the fun part is to make it delicious and make it the main course… A series of Channel IDs were suggested to TV9 and some were picked up for use during their daytime telecast, others were specifically created for their election coverage.

First experiments with channel IDs and news room graphics

Halo – Character Animated Commercial

Upon the success of their initial distribution video created by us, Halo came back to us with a more complicated project that actually involved 3D characters and animation to a large extent to get their idea across to their customer.

The initial part of the project were completed including Sets and Characters but later the project was dropped. The story-line was provided by the agency.

2 Fish in 3 Parts

2 fish in 3 parts ….hmmmm … i think the animation was very hilarious ….. “in some parts”. The voice over needs more work …

… but i guess the guy who did the voice over needed more work on him during the evolution process. While on the subject of evolution, the viewer needs to understand the story line clearly. MAN dies … FISH remain … whether some of the human traits (like speaking to the camera) were transferred during this process is not known. It is best left to the imagination. Imagine Chris and Veto talking their way in the water world …that too like Neville does.

Dedicated microsite coming soon

Halo Promotional FIlm

Halo, an US based Affinity Card Company approached us with a power point presentation and asked us to create a film out of it. The challenging part was to create a film without ever actually meeting the client. After a few back and forth with the Power Point Presentations, we were clear on what we needed to do and what the client exactly wanted.

The result was a fast paced film managing to convey exactly what the company desired.

Rudraksh

Described by the director (Manishankar) as a Socio Mythological Thriller…. Rudraksh was a well executed complicated storyline which created some benchmarks it Bollywood’s history of Visual Effects… We had very little to do in it… One shot… took a lot of time… but it was an good to be a part of such an attempt.

The shot was a visualization of a dream sequence, of a person stuck in between two worlds of life and death and his journey through it. Sketches to print it was a hectic process.

Music Video – Proposed

A company interested is creating remixed version of old Big B songs came to us for a demo on 3D animation for their music videos.

We gave them a proposal and animated small sequences to give and idea of the things to come. Story boards were created for the complete songs. The project never took off as it lacked a buyer from the producer’s side.

Initial storyboards were created on paper, later transfered into a shape of an Audio Board running along the actual song sequences. We never really went till the final Storyboard stage with the project.

Vijai Electricals

Undoubtable the fastest we have ever finished a 40 seconds ad… How do you connect a Transformer manufacturer with billiard… well here is the answer… The ideas came up from Vijay at Interference Techniques. Once we had the story board in our hand, we started off with the battle of getting things ready before it was required on Air

Executed in a flat time of 96 hours of which all hours we were working.

The Thinker

Equations, theories, geometries and all those wonderous scientific “things”, may be emotional expressions for scientists. But finding solutions to emotional turmoils and freudian issues is not a scientists realm. I think ??!!! An artist “looks” and “sees” different, “feels” different, essentially Thinks different. Time may pass by, but the turmoil rages on. Seasons bring in new dimensions to the issues, but solutions are still many moons away. Metaphorical portrayed in this stop motion film.

Thinker achieves nirvana in a sense.

Directed by Sharath Chandra Parsa

Malli

If you go by Indian superstition, that your life’s story is written on your forehead, think again. Malli was created for the “Girl Child Education” awareness program. The effectiveness of the concept should not be described. It should be seen. It should be absorbed.

Sit back. And then replay it in your mind. You will become a part of the program. A very profound and yet simply animated film. Malli brings back those images locked away in our minds. The desire to learn is universal… encourage it.
