Story of Light Festival 2015
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
“A Clockwork Blues” is an experimental storytelling project which cultivates light to bring life to a paper theatre book.
As we enter, the room is dark. The book opens by itself, revealing the first tableau of pop-ups gears, made from layered paper cut-outs. Then, the light runs on the paper, textures the shapes, fixes the décor. Tiny characters enter the scene, explore the gears. Now bright enough, the glowing sculpture blinks along the music, runs on the walls into organic spirals, bounces across space to caress the shadows of the audience…
This is the time to gather, to explore through the evening and the night, how to light a story… a Story of Light. In this workshop, we offer a participative experience across the fields of science, art, design and technology; with the purpose to create, share, and hybridise stories made of and about Light. The art process is illustrated with demonstrations and performances. It is open to all (ages 12+). Three activities run together during the workshop:
– Preparation of a 3D sculpture with Paper Art (Exploring Origami and Kirigami – working towards the Pop-Up Book).
– Projection Mapping on the 3D sculptures and VJing (how to create, apply and control a light design in real-time on a volume).
– Video Feedback (how to create an interactive light installation with video, and to perform with the light entity generated).
The result is a multi-modal art installation; which is intuitive, accessible, and reactive to its participants and environment.The Clockwork Blues Project regroups these different components and introduces the workshop as an open narrative system.

By mosquitomassala | On 20/08/2021 | In Film / Music Video / TVC
Samvida Nanda of the Mosquito Massala had the pleasure to work with Dev Benegal and his production house August Entertainment.
Working with him and Sarat Rao, on their ongoing scripts entitled "Dead End" and "Bombay Samurai", Samvida had the opportunity to learn about the process of creating Moodboards and LookBooks that help define the character, world and mood of feature films. From editing an animatics using the images from the storyboard to undertand the pacing of the film; to wandering through Delhi, Noida, Bombay and the vast arrays of the internet to seek out strange and facinating architecture for inspiration; to exploring the world of cinema and delve into film noirs; and working on sub projects such as Graphic Design of Posters and other visual elements to aid in the submission of "Dead End" to various film festivals, to so much more!
We are happy to announce that director Dev Benegal’s pitch for a dark comedy ‘Dead End’ was named as the best project at the Network of Asian Fantastic Films .
"The story of a man who is declared as dead by a shady government department and has to take extreme measures to prove that he is alive, was written by Benegal and Sarat Rao and is to be produced by Satish Kaushik Entertainment and Benegal’s August Entertainment. The Bucheon Award is worth $15,000."
