[fsug-tvm] Re: Malayalam Blender movie
Hi Guys,
Just landed on board. Nice to see so much initiatives happening on
this.
I can help on screen play and storyboard , Happy to brush with
blender :) but blending skills are so minimal 0.1 .
Suggestion
1. Stories from Indian epics said the same way as it is, seems like
watching Sholay with Hrithik Roshan [extra muscles added to veer]
nothing much other than that. {no hurt feelings on HR fans}.Let us
bring in something that captures essence of time+love+passion+emotion
+adventure = could be an episode.
The Sintel story is much of an episode , where Sintel meets its Dragon
after 20 long years but unable to identify and kills it where emotion
drags in.
Why don't we go ahead with a theme sending a message "What ever we are
searching for, is with in us"
rising from vulnerability , something similar to transformation of
Bruce wayne from his fear of bat to batman,a theme which makes rocky
balboa,a theme within peaceful warrior
2.Let us divide people into teams , fix a time line for storyboard and
stick with it, post it to community and then signoff with members.
Code freez the storyboard and once thaz done , why don't we move ahead
with Blending them.There are studios in Trivandrum where we can do
sound recording cheap and high cost . [experience in assisting with
band "Taalam" :) ]
3.Team meeting @ TVM can be done at open spaces most favorable with a
Laptop. We would just need to share ideas . [Kanakakunnu]
"IF I AM PITCHING ON THE RIGHT NOTE PLEASE PULL ME IN " else let me
know the wind is not hard enough for the wind chimes ;) . I would love
to watch and learn :)
Thanks,
Om Varma

I woke up from a 27 year old dream couple of days back and realized ;
thinking isn't, enough we should apply .

Ok, so you can lead screenplay and storyboard part. If anyone else
wants to chip in this team, jump!

Looks great, lets take it to the next step. Expand and make it a story.

Ok, now that you are leading this part and you know pretty well about
story board and suggest a deadline.

Your experience would be really a great addition to the team.

Suggest a date for this meeting. Someone take minutes and those us
away from TVM can chip in later with comments.

He shared us the steps involved in making a spoken tutorial. He further added that this assignment is open to all in building quality spoken tutorial and IIT Mumbai is ready to fund upto Rs5.00/year for the college student who ensures the proportionate quantum of* quality delivery*. The candidate can be any one like student from engineering/Science college,job seekers, retired people, House wife who can passionately do this job. The content can be any good tutorial on free and open source softwares, and that the work can be started by shooting a mail to Dr.Kannan Moudgalya(who can be reached at kan...@iitb.ac.in) with outline and detailed script. Even a novice can be a participant for building this tutorial and the technical write up will be supported by IIT-Mumbai, and he/she be financially benefited proportionately for his/her contribution. He also underlined that there are very limited tutorials in tamil, and inspired us that we can add many more which will later dubbed to other Indian languages.The original creator will be given credits of his/her work even when the same been dubbed into other indian languages. He said NME explore that the license for the work done by the creator will be released under something similar to that of CC-SA-NC . The meeting is attended by Mr.Raman Pandarinathan, Prof. Kumaran Jaya Engg College,Another faculty from JEC(I forgot his name), Mr.Dhilip, two other students from JEC and myself . You can visit http://spoken-tutorial.org for more information and write to Dr.Kannan for getting any clarifications on the same. regards, Thyagarajan Shanmugham ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc -- Regards Sooraj Kenoth Zyxware Technologies "Be the Change You Wish to See in the World", M.

[fsug-tvm] Fwd: National Conference of Academicians and Researchers, Hyderabad (Dec 16-18, 2010)
-- Forwarded message -- From: sooraj kenoth Date: 2010/11/10 Subject: National Conference of Academicians and Researchers, Hyderabad (Dec 16-18, 2010) To: "This List discusses GNU/Linux & GNU, GPL Software" Dear Friends, Free Software Movement of India (FSMI) is organizing the First National Convention for Academics and Research (NCAR-2010) for spreading awareness of Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FOSS / FLOSS), provide for a platform for sharing of experiences and views in its use in Academia/Research communities and to foster a collaborative approach to education in developing and improving educational aids including software tools. It is estimated that more than 1000 Researchers, Academic personnel from various national universities and organizations like IITs, IISc, IIIT's and other state level Engineering Colleges and Universities from all states, Industry and Government bodies and public sector organisations will participate. The conference aims to focus on the FOSS based research and evangelisation of the same. The FOSS paradigm gives us an opportunity to emerge as a serious research community with global co-operation. This would enable the bridging of the gap between research-industry and societal demands. An integration for research between academia and industry is not up to the mark as it is in the case of developed nations. This conference shall also provide space for Industry to place their requirements before the researchers to facilitate the reach of the academia and institutions at large. All are requested to give this news wide coverage through exhibiting in their sites, circulating to others and communicating to friends and relatives. Those academicians and researchers who are interested to participate either as observers, presenting papers, offering demonstration or tutorials on education tools are requested to register at the site referred above. Students are also welcome to demonstrate or offer tutorials for any education tools. Regards Sooraj Kenoth Zyxware Technologies "Be the Change You Wish to See in the World", M. K.
