Projects

In the Summer Internship project in Lotus, I got opportunity to work on ACEAGRO project under Omkar Mulgund. It is an India based Agricultural company which is famous for its export quality organic products. There were different projects executed by me as a part of this training which ranged from CIP (Corporate identity programme) for Natural Sweetener which is Aceagro’s total organic substitution for sugar, Cat[1]egorization of Information and designing for web designing and Informative show reel of company for Aceagro. While working in summer internship project I learnt other related areas of design such as handling corporate clients and their comments, and giving my best in deadlines.


Exploration in story telling using Mythology to address contemporary issues

The earth has its own system of balancing its environment. The cycle of balance is going on from so many years. Now this cyclic process of balancing is facing numerous problems. These problems are slowly affecting the whole planet and ultimately, us. There are many organizations working on environmental issues to spread this awareness. This message needs to reach to every level, so the needed change in human behavior and habits can be motivated. In India where not everyone is literate and not everyone has access to technology, this message need to find its way to all. I am trying to convey this concern for environment in a manner, which is highly accessible though simplified. For this purpose, I am working on a theme, which is close to a large part of Indian society, who can easily relate to the way it is made. I am using a traditional way of entertainment, education and communication to convey my thoughts about environment, which is mythology.


Documentary film on Cartoonist and illustrator S. D. PHADNIS

Mr. S. D. Phadnis is a renowned cartoonist and an illustrator, working for almost six decades. He has carved a niche for himself in the field of humorous illustrations. The simplicity in his work brings out the humor in the day-to-day life. His outstanding illustrations in the Maths textbooks (1st/2nd std) for school children, introduced me to the splendid art of illustrations at a very early age. His illustrations made learning Maths more fun and easy. Thanks to my documentary film project, for my Masters, I got an opportunity to meet him personally and understand his perspective towards work.
