Creativity and Sustainability- Striking that Right Balance
This 25th April, Nilima & Suresh ‘Eeks’ Eriyat of Studio Eeksaurus team up with TASI for an exclusive screening of their latest short film – Fisherwoman and Tuk-Tuk.
The screening will be followed by a presentation on the making of the film and a straight from the heart talk by Suresh about pursuing your passion while battling with the harsh realities of life as they attempt to sustain a mid sized studio and build a successful brand.
On this merger the Tata has gained a unique and innovative way into the world of animation and this is making the world of animation a better place for both the employees and employers.
Phenakistoscope (1831) A phenakistoscope disc by Eadweard Muybridge (1893).The phenakistoscope was an early animation device. It was invented in 1831 simultaneously by the Belgian Joseph Plateau and the Austrian Simon von Stampfer. It consists of a disk with a series of images, drawn on radii evenly spaced around the center of the disk. Slots are cut out of the disk on the same radii as the drawings, but at a different distance from the center. The device would be placed in front of a mirror and spun. As the phenakistoscope is spun, a viewer would look through the slots at the reflection of the drawings which would only become visible when a slot passes by the viewer's eye. This created the illusion of animation.
