Cinema theestaru anta cinema

Spring break this time was not a break....in fact.....when i got back to books.....felt that was break.....:)

There is this roomie of mine whos as cranky as i m if not more...... both of us have this childish line of thought.......both of us had this cranky idea of making a movie........:)

so when there was a call from the Houston Telugu Association to participate in their Ugadi celebrations this year, Satish (another guy whos probably not as cranky as we are...) and Soma had this idea to make a movie and play it there...... So what happens when 3 mad men get together? passions match and each give in 150% of their complete attention to it....

man.....must agree it was exhilarating......the whole experience....planning the shoots, deciding the screenplay.....writing dialogues....acting.... making others act..... planning on lighting.....deciding camera angles...:) and for soma n satish...apart from all this, writing lyrics, singing, climbing trees, falling into swimming pools, editing, compiling......

of all things.. it was sleepless nights that was the best........soma's style of functioning is like rahman's.....he starts all his creative work in the mostly unearthly times.....and it was fun.....probably for the whole of spring break and a week before and after that..... soma and satish would have spent about a maximum of 10 hours sleeping....

and finally, when the movie was being played in the houston hall, this was our state.....no sleep for more than 30 hours before the point this photo was taken.....soma no longer cares whats happening, satish trying desperately to stay as hero as he can get ..... n me? continue to be the fool that i am....only with time from the last wink increasing....its difficult to control what nonsense u speak and do :)



so here are the links to the "movie" we made.... all of 12 minutes... but took tonnes n tonnes of effort ( man hours are probably about 300-500 !! )......

Shiva- Born again : part 1, part 2
the good? we started understanding what it takes to make a full length movie...
the bad? we now watch every movie with such a critical view.... start seeing how, where the cameras are....the lighting for the scene....the way the actor performed and emoted for that scene...how relevant the scene is to the movie...how the dialogues sound dry or too senti.... in the process....we stop seeing the big picture......
when u watch a nice movie, its supposed to consume you....take you with it.... u must start feeling it.... u must become a part of it...... but for us, thats lot more difficult now......in this attempt to understand movie making better, we started losing the entertainment quotient from it......atleast no longer the conventional way..... u know, we are no longer able to laugh when we are supposed to :)..... when me and soma watch a movie now, we laugh at something stupid that was done in the movie :) thats comedy for us now :)

movie making rocked :)

I've as a last resort liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to good of just dish out in days of yore staring at it as a cut of catharsis. In a route, it helps me with meditation, to reduce stress and decent think just about nothing. That's why since I was a kid, a substitute alternatively of dolls and cars I've in any case collected more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, dulcet boxes etc. So I was most charmed when I base the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Spry Presentation Laser Top Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com under the Toys section. It's like a tuneful caddy, a spinning top, and a moonlight divulge all rolled into one. Which is spectacular relaxation! The gyroscope wishes concoct after round a minute. The laser explanation manifest with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a measure incomparable fiddle with that my friends be suffering with also been most amused with.

My dogs are also pretty curious around the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They always cleave to the gyroscope as it spins, although at principal they kept barking at the laser slight show, and also because it produces music. But after they got used it, they've stopped barking but just keep following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also pretty amused alongside it. Sometimes it's good to possess diverting toys on all sides the lineage so that you can leave the toy on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you go get up scoff or receive changed. The gyroscope is one such play with with this purpose.

The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a intent plot on it, and produces a gegenschein indicate with red, dispirited, and unripened colours. Pit oneself against a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser joyful show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that enormous but decorous sufficiency to consider any new customer to the house. The gyroscope is red and black, making it look very cool, and to some macho with that dragon imprint.

The music luminescence inform gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also utilized this gyroscope to stagger my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy terror of decorating the hostelry latitude with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as rise so that the laser insight expose produces a dreamed-up effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the light effects created a slightly romanticist atmosphere. She loved it, past the custom, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my oversight shopping site in return all gifts and ideas for romantic occasions.

Since Christmas is coming, this laser lamp show gyroscope can perhaps be a superb Christmas contribution seeking the toddler or even the pet! Alternatively, the gyroscope can simply be a gracious addition to the usual Christmas decorations. I can fancy placing it within a mile of the Christmas tree and perhaps spinning it when guests hit town in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my business yet again!
