22nd Sept 14.......was meant to write this post two days ago.....but was a bit under the weather...feeling a little unwell....am ok now.....beastly viral....cant do a shit about it! 20th sept was the third in the series of Dialogues.....an initiative of Sudhanshu Dube and the ZIMA team.....after successful sessions in Writing and Sound.....ab Cinematography ki baari thi. On our panel.....besides Ajay Tandon and me (hum toe ghar wale they)....we had Pravin Bhatt,Gyan Sahay and the young Pooja Gupte... I am personally grateful to Pravin Bhai and Gyan for instantly accepting our invitation.....Pravin Bhai only asked...yaar,bhashan washan toe nahiin dena padega?......i said not at all....only share your experience and interact with the kids....same with Gyan.... It was a wonderful session.....Pravin Bhai (perhaps the senior most DOP in the Industry today.....though totally young at heart).....Gyan Sahay.....arguably one of the biggest names as a Director/DOP of reality shows....and young Pooja Gupte...whose film (shot on the humble 5D)....crossing bridges won her a national award for cinematography...... all three offered invaluable advice to the kids.....who asked plenty of questions and got plenty of answers.... the session culminated in Samit Shetty (formerly ZIMA VFX and now a big guy with Autodesk).....gave a little presentation about the new Flame Premium (ZIMA is the only institute in Asia to have this software as a teaching tool!!)...extremely informative and interesting.... A great affair...and many more to come...!!
