iPhone Fashion Shoot

Fashion shot done with iPhone 3GS

Its really awesome to see how best you can shoot a picture just with a Camera which can be categorized as Above Average. Most of the guys (including me) blame the non-availability of resource for their low quality of work. But the fact is that we need talent to make anything work for what you want. Check out this video which is proving.  The video is about 10 minutes long & it covers the complete photo shoot. They have done some minor touch up to the photo’s after it was taken.

Jakkuboys – Short Film

Watch this video, its a short film by few Indian folks.  When i watched this video i was able to relate myself with the Kathir Character & few of my friends with the Anand character.  The Director / Writer Mr.Satish Kumar should be very jovial person, he was able to pull right chords to make every one laugh.

Concept of the Movie

This movie speaking about IT industry in India,  These days getting a IT Job is not as easy as everyone thinks. Once you get the job, succeeding in the Job is as difficult as life or death. When we discuss about working every one will speak about the person who is dedicated, hard working & loyal to the company. But when it comes to hike, promotion then it goes to the person who can make his superiors happy, irrespective of whether he works (or) not.  This movie teases those who are dedicate, loyal  & hard works. It teases these category of people because they can’t achieve any thing with their hardwork. Watch this short film to understand the truth behind this.
