SHOWREEL

The Showreel is a curated compilation of some of my choicest work.

AGENT VINOD-TITLE SEQUENCE

I designed and co-directed this title sequence for the Bollywood blockbuster, Agent Vinod. I sketched out the original concepts, supervised the shoot and then lead the CG artists through to delivery. Here, you can see some of my early sketches, photoshop look frames and the finished project in the design section of the website.

THE DANSEUSE-SONY MIX-CHANNEL IDENT

For us the world we live in and its beauty derives itself from music. A danseuse's art-form is one such instance. It enamours and captivates because it is inseparably married to music. And yet, ask the danseuse and her thoughts on music will be that it sets her free. That is the beauty of this overarching inspiration that you will find in this channel ident for Sony Mix.

I designed and directed the film. It started with a digital painting for the look frame first , then did a storyboard for the sequences, directed and eventually supervised the CG for this beautiful piece.

MUSIC IN SILENCE-SONY MIX-CHANNEL IDENT

They say "Music and Silence combine strongly because Music is the silence between the notes, and Silence is full of music. This Image spot was based on this thought where cameras and the microphones are seen capturing the silence only punctuated by ambient sounds in the space.The beautiful ambience is translated in the form of music and transmitted through the coloured wires. The wires reach the music to the TV sets in the form of the Channel logo.
Its grim, its hollow and it contrasts the conventional form that we are used to perceiving music in, but somewhere it just makes one realise the presence of music thats present all around.

My role here started from the ideation of the concept, to the direction, colouring and music all along through the final delivery.

THE MOOD ELEVATOR- SONY MIX-CHANNEL IDENT

Set inside an elevator.A guy enters the elevator and its a life changing experience when everything around him changes as soon as the door closes.Music emanates from the speakers and the whole place transforms into a swanky and colorful space.
This is a fun take on how music as an experience just transforms emotions.This was adapted as an Ident for the channel.

I designed, directed and supervised the CG for the film.

COLORS-SONY MIX-CHANNEL IDENT

"People will always need love, romance, a tender touch, and really personal and deeply felt music."
Susannah McCorkle

On these lines this image spot was conceptualised. We see a beautiful couple drenched in love , soaked in music with dripping colors following the rhythm. They follow the music and create patterns. These patterns with colours culminate into the Channel Logo.

My role included Ideation, Direction, Editing, Supervising the Grading and Music.

DAY 1 ON MIX-2015

Day 1 on Mix is how Sony Mix, the Music Channel,brands its 1st day of the year.The film was shot on 5Ds and Iphones.It was very experimental in nature and aimed to capture sounds from the surroundings and string that together to make music.It was aimed at telling a story about how people in their own confinements are blanketed around in music.

I directed, shot parts of the film, edited and supervised the creation of the music for the film.
