Detailed Description

The objective of this research project was to study and understand Indian miniature painting as an exploration of an animation style for a narrative set in a similar period. These paintings depict the royal grandeur of rulers, their court pursuits and pleasures, celebrations, and social delicacy with intricate details and vivid colour. Each painting has its own world of fantasy. So, a glimpse and pertinent observation are needed to arrive at a working method for animation. As a deliverable of this project, a short animation needed to be made in accordance with the already existing and selected Indian miniature painting.
