Prithvi (Earth)
Prithvi (Earth) from tuhin paul on Vimeo.
This is an old animation that I along with a team of my friends worked on in year 2008. We were still studying at NID (National Institute of Design) at that time. This was not supposed to be a standalone animation video earlier but an interactive flash animation as a part of an installation. As a custom in NID we were to make an installation for display during the convocation ceremony of our super-seniors. After thinking over many different ideas we zeroed in on to this one idea of showing evolution of human society with the passage of time and its effect on earth. The reason for having the animation interactive was to make the whole user experience more engaging. We also took up a challenge of incorporating interactivity without having the user to be acquainted with computers. It took us a week's time to finish this and put up for display. More details about this project is available here.

Back again
It's been almost 2 years since I have posted anything on this blog. For those who have just read my previous post, I would wait for the laughter to subside. I keep on making a mockery of myself :P. I am glad that at least I am still sticking to my decision to blog. I find it a little tough to write and to write something that looks like a nice read to me takes quite long. Another thing that dissuades me from writing, is the question that comes to my mind every time I decide to write, "what am I going to write about and is it worth writing?" One fine day I came across a blog by Mark Kennedy. Mark Kennedy is a story artist at Walt Disney Studios and has worked as head of story in Disney's film Tangled (2010). In his blog he writes about animation, storyboarding, visual design and everything that he is passionate about and that is worth writing about. I think I should do the same too. So to begin with I spent a day on cosmetic makeover of this blog. I hope I'll continue blogging this time at least more frequently than one post in a year or two.

Would blog regularly :)
Thats right. I have decided to write regularly. One day I created this blog and in next three days I posted three times on it. This was two years back. Since then Its been gathering dust. Today to comment on someone elses blog I signed in and just paid a visit to my own blog. The three posts welcomed me. I was delighted to read them again. It was like listening to a two years younger version of mine. Also I think there are many ways in which writing helps.
It makes you think else we dont we wont evolve :P
I sketch a lot and I think its exactly like sketching. It lets you see your thoughts more clearly.
Just what I realized today, through this you can speak to your past as well as future. Nice I know :)
It tells how I have changed over time.
And I want to write stories that I would later on Animate or illustrate for a book.
So I must blog regularly

The Orientation
Ok... we had this 2 day orientation. Dont know what were we being oriented towards. At the end I am totally disoriented and so are others. We have no idea what are we supposed to do. Some of us (in fact most of us) got ragged and I was missing from the scene. But I guess thats ok. A healthy relationship doesnt demand a ragging. Many of us have work experience of 1 - 2 years. Course commences on 18th.

Running around
As I have got selected for NID, I am busy doing a lot of jogging these days. And doing it all day long, from early morning to late night. Sometimes for acquiring transcripts from the administration block, sometimes for getting the documents attested, and sometimes to ask the people at academic office at NID whether they have received my Draft. But I guess its ok. I can now boast of a busy schedule.
